About the Event

Info for Riders

We have two superb routes available taking in some of the best scenery and roads in Fife and surrounds. With distances and elevation gains to suit your ability, select either the 92 mile 'Full' route or 58 mile 'Challenge' route.

Click on the links below to show the route maps.

 

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45048648 - The Full Route. The toughest of our two rides at 92 miles. Before hitting the climbs it takes in a fast coastal section of the UCI Elite Men's Road Race route through Culross before turning east, with a steep ascent over the Lomond Hills to historic Falkland and Lindores Loch. It then travels west, re-joining the 'Challenge Route' riders at Loch Leven, before returning to Dunfermline via the Cleish hill climb.

 

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45381073 - The Challenge Route. At 58 miles this ride still enjoys much of the same beautiful scenery as its sibling, but at a more comfortable distance. It still retains the excellent coastal section of last year's 'UCI Worlds' route through historic Culross, and takes you on a classic loop around Loch Leven. There it re-joins the Full Route riders before returning to Dunfermline via the Cleish hill climb. It may be shorter, however it still represents a challenge for those wishing to push themselves!
