The Joker Sportive

Cycle Sportive , Wiltshire – Sunday, 07 Apr 2013

Event Summary

Event Overview

The Joker is a brand new sportive, set around the beautiful droves and valleys west of Salisbury. Stunning countryside, chocolate box villages and an exceptional course in this 'sportive-perfect' pocket of hills will form the backbone of the day. But this is The Joker, and it wouldn't be April Fools Day (well nearest Sunday!) without a trick or two up it’s sleeves! 

The Joker will tempt you and test you. He'll throw down Jokers Challenges; extra hills and hurdles off of the main course to really prove your mettle. And he'll offer you Fools Choices; free and easy short cuts that may just be too good to be true! Make the right choices and you'll have the ride of the season! Misjudge his smile and you'll fall into his traps...
