Polocini - Winter Sprinter

Cycle Sportive , Stockport – Sunday, 06 Mar 2016

Entry powered by British Cycling
Registered Sportive

Event Summary

Event Overview

Now in it's sixth year The Winter Sprinter is our traditional season opener. It's the perfect event to stretch your legs and get back in the routine of riding.

The Sprinter sells out quickly every year and entries are limited to 300 riders only. WE DO NOT ACCEPT ENTRIES ON THE DAY.

There are two mostly flat routes of either 62 or 31 Miles that head out into the quiet Cheshire Lanes and suit riders of all abilities.

The routes were revised in 2015 and we will no longer take on Swiss Hill but will instead ascend the nicer cobbles of Woodbrook Road. It's not a Winter Sprinter without some cobbles!

Included in the £25 entry fee we have tea, coffee, pre ride porridge and a post ride meal from Masterchef finalist Jackie Kearney of The Hungry Gecko.

There is a feed station a the halfway point of the ride and YES we do have Haribo. 

Photography is provided by Rick Robson of Cyclesportphotos. Rick is the author of the excellent Detour de Yorkshire book.
