We are thrilled to be running the fourth Fakenham 50 with new routes to suit everyone.

This year we have our popular Fakenham 50 routes ranging from 15 to 36 miles but we are adding another brand new 62 mile (100k) route which can link to the original route offering a full 100 miles.

Go local. We are a locally organised but professionally run cycle ride.  Local charities, local companies, local clubs, locally sourced produce and cakes where possible.  Everyone is welcome to join us to enjoy our beautiful town and its surrounding countryside.

Fakenham50 is an enjoyable; non-competitive sportive, starting from the picturesque North Norfolk market town of Fakenham through some of the best gentle cycling routes in the country. It will end an exciting week of health related activities in and around the town.

There are various options (approximate lengths) 14.5 miles, 25 miles or 36 miles 62 miles (100k).  Or combine for up to 100 miles.  Each rider will be provided with insurance, a map, signage, registration, marshals, mobile mechanics, support, rescue service, drinks and refreshments (including our famous homemade flapjack) on route, advice and information. Discounts for groups of 4 people and accompanied under 16s. Garmin files available.
