DATE OF EVENT: 02/05/10
EVENT DETAILS
The Tour de Weald the second event in the SRS Events 2010 Cyclosportive Series has to be considered the hardest cyclosportive in the South East of England when talking about the longest route of the four distances available on the Tour de Weald Cyclosportive. The premier route on this ride ie the Classic is 125 miles long.
All the Routes of the Tour de Weald enjoy the quite roads of the Kent and Sussex countryside and with four routes to test all abilities The Tour De Weald is a must for any Cyclosportive Warrior wishing to test their abilities as a rider.
CLASSIC ROUTE
This is the long one ! 125 miles and too many hills in our opinion ! But look at it this way what goes up must come down. Mind you if can't get up one of the first major hills called Castle Hill you might want to consider taking that turning for the Challenge route while you have the chance.
A Special award goes to those that finish this ride a broom wagon is available for those who fail in their attempts.
CHALLENGE ROUTE
The mark of any good cyclist is being able to complete 100 miles.
The mark of a good cyclosportive rider is being able to finish the Tour de Weald Challenge route and still have the energy to lift spoon to mouth as you tuck into all the free food at the HQ.
TOUR ROUTE
The Tour Route is not whimping out it's still 65 miles long and this is no easy ride, enjoyable yes but iit will take the average Cyclospotive rider 5 hours to complete.
THE KERMESSE
The Kermesse is great event for riders who wish to ride their first cyclosportive event and don't want to blow a gasket. Enjoy the lovely picturesque route and of course kick back for a while at the feed station.
