Event Summary

Event Overview

There will be a short (30 mile) a medium (50 mile) and a long (75mile) route. The event is now in its fourth year and all profits will go to the H4H charity last year they received £3790. The routes will be on quiet country lanes with 2 very short sections on A Roads.   The medium and long rides will have the benefit of a feed station. There will be a cafe which will be open to riders on returning from their ride. Riders will benefit from a voucher towards the cost of food purchased at the onsite cafe. Once again this is an opportunity to ride some of Worcestershires best country lanes whilst supporting this very worthwhile charity.
