Our 75km hilly challenge starts in Bartley Green and extends into the Worcestershire countryside.

The route meanders through scenic villages such as Romsley, Belbroughton, Chaddesley Corbett, Dodford and Barnt Green. After just 5km participants are presented with Romsley Hill, a 4km hill climb designed to warm up our cyclists. The route goes out as far as Stoke Prior before heading back into the South Birmingham suburbs. As the sail boats come into view at Bartley Green reservoir participants take on the final stretch towards the finish line.

Cyclist can sign-in at leisure on the day and head off at any time between 9am and 10am. We provide a range of refreshments and toilets at the start/finish venue as well as a feed station and comfort stop on route. All riders who successfully cross the finish line will be rewarded with receive a commemorative gift and certificate.

The 2016 event saw some great feedback from participants with particular reference made to the scenic, hilly route which is predominantly on country lanes, excellent signage, post event food and excellent organisation.
