Event Summary

This event has been cancelled

Event Overview

Since its inception in 2014, over £60,000 has been raised for local causes through this event, and last year 800 riders registered to ride, which, together with the help of our generous sponsors, enabled us to support 4 local children's charities, who do fantastic work in the community. Your loyal support is much appreciated!!

Alongside the sportive, we will also have post ride entertainment, including food outlets, ice cream, and a bar, courtesy of a local brewery. Post ride, top UK cycle stunt riders "Savage Skills" will take centre stage on the stunning grounds of the Hesslewood Business Park. There will also be a raffle on the day with fantastic prizes to be won - 1st prize will be a voucher for a bike!! - all proceeds to be donated to local charities. Bring the family along!!

We offer a choice of 3 routes -  22, 42 and 62 miles - these can be viewed on our website. All routes will cross the iconic Humber Bridge on a dedicated footway before riding on the quiet roads of North Lincs, which offer spectacular views across to Lincoln Cathedral and the Humber Estuary.

The longer route will head towards the market town of Caistor, before tracking down to the river Humber, and then return to the Humber Bridge via Goxhill and Barton.

This event, whilst presenting a testing challenge to those who take on the 62 mile route, has proved extremely popular with families and those who are new to sportives. We aim to keep our entry fees as low as possible and still offer great value for money - our Feed Stations are a highlight of the event - check out the Feedback Page on our Facebook page / website!!!

Feed stations are provided for each route, with an additional water/banana stop for the Long Route, and refreshments are available free of charge at the end of the ride. Please aim to adhere to the opening / closing times of these stations.

Toilet facilities will be available at Hesslewood, and at both Feed Stations on the Long/Medium routes.

Mechanical support and a mobile First Aid Unit will also be on duty throughout the event. The event also uses chip timing.

Photographers will be out and about during the day, and you will be able to download photographs free of charge. A finishing photograph + certificate with your time will also be available for download from Ride Timing.

Detailed information about the event, together with the routes, can be found on our website: www.humberbridgesportive.co.uk

Any updates and information are also posted regularly on our event Facebook page.
