Event Summary

Event Overview

Now in our 5th year, this very friendly event goes from strength to strength. One for the ladies and girls aged 7+, we have 3 routes planned in the lovely Vale of Belvoir and along the Belvoir Ridge.  

3 distances - 25 mile route (1 feed stop about half way);  50 and 70 miles (2 evenly spaced feed stops).

Give yourself something to aim for in this summer and sign up with friends or family or come and meet other like-minded women and enjoy a ride through the countryside in an area that is fast becoming a favourite for cyclists.

Starting and finishing at the village hall in Hose, the routes will be well signposted, avoiding any busy roads. This is a sportive, or a personal challenge cycle ride.  It is not a race and there will be no timing chips.  You are obviously more than welcome to record your efforts on your phone and or GPS device.

And now for the cake bit…yes there will be plenty of legendary homemade cakes on offer, some naughtier than others – but we reckon you will have deserved it.

Entry price also includes a medal, no tat goody bag, unlimited drinks and complimentary post ride massage.

About the Event

Info for Riders

The 25 mile route is a great loop around Belvoir Castle, taking in quiet country lanes and pretty villages. The route is undulating with nearly 1200ft (355m) of climbing overall. We get the biggest climb over with towards the start of the race. The 50 Mile route is more challenging and offers 2,300ft (700m) of climbing, up the ridge 3 times to get your heart pumping. For both routes there will be lots of homemade cake and we promise a great fun day out.
