Organised by the Evans Cycles RideIt! series, a mountain bike ride will take place on Saturday May 12 followed by a sportive ride on Sunday May 13, both starting out from Didmarton Village Hall in Gloucestershire.
There are three or four marked routes of varying difficulties to choose from at each of the events, ranging from 12 to 90 miles.
The mountain bike ride heads to the pretty Cotswold town of Wooton-under-Edge,�where the routes offer a mixture of valley pathways and short steep climbs.��
�
The riding is mainly on bridleways�with a fantastic�2km section of singletrack�to enjoy on the longer routes.�
The sportive ride takes in Kingswood and the surrounding Gloucestershire landscape, waeving out to Wotton and making a bee-line for the River Severn.
Riding on country lanes there are some spectacular views to be had, along with great climbs.
Evans Cycles RideIt! is also working with Gore Bike Wear to provide a 'Try before you Buy' service which allows participants can test out Gore clothing on the ride and see how it performs. Garmin GPS units pre-loaded with the routes for the day will also be available to hire at the events.
Advance entry fees for adults are �7.50 for the fun road sportive route and �12.50 for all other routes while on the day entries incur an additional surcharge of �2.50 per person. �Children under 16 are free when accompanied by a full-paying adult.
