Registered Sportive

Event Summary

Event Overview

A SUMMER CHALLENGE ACROSS VARIED TERRAIN


Take on our fully supported challenge on the best roads Leicestershire and Rutland has to offer

Once you’ve started your ride you’ll soon find yourself on quiet yet challenging terrain. The area is full of punchy climbs that come thick and fast, so there is always something to think about. No long, dull, flat sections here.  

Travelling out of the Market Town of Melton Mowbray you’ll skirt past Belvoir Castle as you head towards Rutland - England’s smallest county.  A feed awaits all routes and the long route then heads around Rutland Water before heading back over some lumpy sections - aided by a second feed though!

At least one indoor feed station per route will be provided with a variety of sweet and savoury items including Pork Pies from Ye Olde Pork Pie Shoppe! (they went down a treat this year!).  Hot and Cold drinks will be served as well as High Five Energy to fill you bottles before heading back out.

Once back to the HQ, we’ll re-fuel you with delicious hot food and if you want to celebrate your ride with a drink, there is a brewery and Gin bar on site!
