Tour of Cotswolds

Flowing from beautiful village to the next the route is not the standard Cotswolds fayre and takes in some of the less travelled but equally more beautiful lanes and villages

There are some challenging climbs on the routes – the 76 mile ride offers 6155ft of climbing and takes in the hills of Blockley, Stanway, Campden Lane and home to the 2010 UK National Hill Climb, Dover’s Hill.  The 52 mile route offers 3927ft and includes all of the same climbs bar Stanway.

The sportive will start from Shipston on Stour Rugby Club and both routes will be comprehensively sign posted, route cards with emergency contact details will be provided to each rider and full .gpx files will be available for riders to upload to their sat navs

Entries close on Thursday 14 July 2016 at 2355 and the sportive has a maximum entry of 500 riders to ensure a quality event where all riders needs are fully met, the route doesn't get over crowded and the event respects the outstanding villages and countryside it passes through
