Wiggle Motion in Mercia

Cycle Sportive , Wolverhampton – Sunday, 07 Apr 2013

Registered Sportive

Event Summary

Event Overview

Wiggle Motion in Mercia - The Midlands sportive challenge set to the backdrop of Britain's industrial heritage. There’s 92 miles or 53 miles around South Staffordshire and Shropshire. Both routes depart from the prestigious Aldersley Leisure Village HQ and head off to the climb up to the tranquil forest of Cannock Chase. Then it's a gentle open descent and easy cruise to the feedstation via some of the quietest South Staffordshire Lanes. The 92 miles route takes riders 'all around the Wrekin' - the historic West Mercian beacon hill, then down to the Severn Valley and onto UNESCO world heritage site, Ironbridge. It was this place that got the modern industrial world in motion!
