Sunday 11th October saw the inaugural UK Cycling Events sportive held in the New Forest. The event was a spectacular success, with all riders enjoying a choice of 100 mile (Epic) / 70 mile (Standard) / 40 mile (Fun) courses, though the beautiful New Forest. UK Cycling Event extended the entry by 100 riders but these were quickly gobbled up on the day, within 25 mins of registration opening!
All riders enjoyed the superbly signed course, stocked feed stations; well laid out event centre encompassing technical support (Cycle surgery), bike wash centre (Mobi and MucOff). Sports massage and post ride facilities including, local farmhouse cake were welcomed by the riders after a few hours in the saddle.
