Kent, Surrey and Sussex Air Ambulance Double 100 Ride!

Keith — Wed, 16 May 2012 08:43:49 +0000

The Kent Surrey & Sussex Air Ambulance’s Double 100 Cycle Challenge is taking place on Sunday 10 June and starts and finishes at our base at Dunsfold Park (Cranleigh on the Surrey/Sussex borders). Cyclists can take either a 100 mile or 100km route around the country lanes of Surrey, West and East Sussex and Kent.

Entry fee is £25 and we ask if cyclists can obtain sponsorship. There is plenty of parking at Dunsfold Park and there will be a BBQ and music at the end to reward cyclists for their efforts. BBC Radio 2′s Sally Traffic will also be on hand to congratulate and hand over goody bags and certificates.

Further details and registration is available on the website: www.kssairambulance.org.uk/fundraising/double100<http://www.kssairambulance.org.uk/fundraising/double100>.

Wilier Gran Turismo reviewed by Bike Radar!

“A smooth and fast ride for long days in the saddle”

Few bikes we’ve tested seem as aptly named as the Wilier Gran Turismo. Just like its automotive namesake, the Gran Turismo is fast and reasonably light but impressively comfortable for long days on the road while still maintaining the look, feel and positioning of a full-blown race rig.

Back for another epic year, the Southern Sportive series returns this weekend with “The Joker”.

“April 1st is not passing unnoticed in the Sportive world this weekend, with The Joker providing a fitting take on the cyclosportive format for the day. The April Fools day event is certainly no joke, featuring a spectacular and testing course, but organisers Southern Sportive couldn’t let the day pass without injecting a couple of novel twists to mark the occasion”.

Isle of Wight Riviera Sportive press recce.

Keith — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 11:01:09 +0000

As sponsors of the Isle of Wight Riviera Sportive we were recently invited by event organisers Southern Sportive to a press recce of the ride.

We joined RCUK, Cycling Plus, Bike Radar and Road.cc on a 25KM recce ride on rolling roads with amazing panoramic views. The IoW is certainly not flat with some excellent and quiet undulating roads, offering a 360 degree vista of the island, solent and main land.
