Event Summary

Event Overview

********ENTRIES OPEN 1st January 2024*********

 

Starting at Boxford Playing Fields, Homefield, Boxford, Suffolk, CO10 5PB, cyclists riding the full 65 mile course will set out on a 32 mile loop of the quiet country roads surrounding Boxford. You will pass through several quaint villages and witness some lovely countryside views. With 1,417ft of elevation, this is a nice undulating route with just the right amount of challenge and speedier sections. On returning to Boxford, cyclists will head out on the second loop (new for 2024) of 33 miles with 1,484ft of elevation, again passing through quaint villages and gorgeous Constable country. The feed station is approximately ¼ of a mile into the second loop. Participants wishing to ride only one loop will have the option of riding either loop 1 or 2. Total climb is similar but loop 1 has more challenging hills whilst loop 2 has more gentle climbs. Each of the routes will be FULLY SIGNPOSTED. Event email: kevbike@btopenworld.com

What's included: Fully signposted route, mobile mechanic and recovery, first aid and recovery, feed station on 65 mile route, free event photos, post ride BBQ.
