Cyclosportive 42mile
This new eventwill appeal to anyone who feels that 73 miles of tough off-road cycling is just a bit too much!
It is competitive because you are competing against yourself in terms of strength and stamina but a sportive is not a race and there are no prizes. However, you still have the benefit of electronic timing.
Riders briefings will be sent out prior to the event and include more detailed information & maps. Please visit the website and our facebook page for further information and updates.
Distance: 42 miles. Tayinloan to Campbeltown
Difficulty Rating: Think 42 miles on varied terrain up and over the hills of the Kintyre peninsula. Hardly ever on level ground and only 8 miles on tarmac. We like to think it's a tough but achievable event with the right training! Check out our facebook page for Relive clips from last years event.
