About the Event

Info for Riders

Both 100 mile and 65mile rides start at 08.00 from the Lancaster Toyota showrooms in Coldhams Lane, Cambridge (CB1 3LH), and will be fully signposted along the entire route. There will be two feed points on the 100 mile route and one on the 65 route offering plenty of sports nutrition products plus fruit and savouries as well as drinks and water. There is also a nutritional snack on your return to Toyotas showroom. Mechanical back up will be available on route thanks to the Wheels in Wheels BMW service bike and a broom wagon will sweep the course to get you back should your bike fail you. Both long rides will be timed for your personal information and event safety. A full mechanical backup is available before the event from Ben Hayward Cycles at Horningsea who will offer a free bike check to all entrants and at the start offering service items for the ride. The Family Ride will start at 11.00 and will also be fully signed and will mainly follow existing cycle routes in and around Cambridge.
