Event Summary

Event Overview

Three fully supported rides, - key rides in the Ludlow Cycling Festival. All funds raised go to MacMillan Cancer Support. All rides are mainly on small rural roads and lanes.

  • South Shropshire Tors 106 – At 106km this route is for the more experienced rider. Testing, but not extreme, and mostly on small rural roads, it is designed to make the most of some of the most dramatic terrain and views in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.  1400m of climbing includes  Spring Hill,  the Kerry Ridge and Whitcliffe.

  •  South Shropshire Tors 60 – A less severe 60k route  but still with challenges. Total climbing of 655m includes a number of shorter hills and rolling sections on picturesque, quiet South Shropshire roads. The ride finishes with the major climb of Whitcliffe and a dramatic swoop into Ludlow.
  • South Shropshire Tors 30 - Gentle back lanes to Leintwardine, returning via Whitcliffe, with stunning  views across Ludlow. For riders new to sportives, or prefering a shorter ride.

All rides are fully supported with rider leaflet inc. map, 1st Aid, broom wagons, 2/1 food stops and bike maintenance support (106 K). Riders will be manually timed. Changing and showers available at ride headquarters.
