The Great Escape

Reliability Trial , London – Sunday, 20 May 2018

Event Summary

Event Overview

Welcome to another edition of The Great Escape! We expect another sell out event, just as it was over the past four years, so book your place early to avoid dissapointment.

The 200km route will take you from the heart of London to the rolling countryside of Essex and back via quiet roads and picturesque villages. There are two great rest stops at Great Bardfield (the Knead Cafe at The Blue Egg) and at Great Dunmow.

We again partner with Look Mum No Hands! where our ride starts in Old Street, so join us there for a pre-ride breakfast and post-ride celebrations.
