Sun, Sea and Cycling... Set in the seaside town of Bournemouth this sportive draw on many years experience of the local Arrow cycling club to put on a stunning sportive across the 3 Counties of Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire. The route balances quiet roads, sublime scenery, and the challenge of the 3 quality climbs of, Win Green, Bulbarrow and Milton Abbas. You will enjoying the panoramic views of distant Somerset from Dorsets highest point Bulbarrow, the picture postcard view of Milton Abbey School Playing Fields on the way down and the model village of Milton Abbas going up the climb of the same name.

The first Sportive in the Wiggle super series has two route lengths (83miles / 56 miles), The route differs from our end of session finale, but incorporates the same spectacular scenery of the New Forest National Park, combined with wild animals grazing at the roadside and picturesque villages, a great season opener!

The event includes all the sophistication you would expect, including: electronic timing, well stocked feed stations, tarmac parking, free energy products, event photography, toilets, mechanical support, bike wash facilities and most importantly an extremely well marked course!

This Sportive is quite a challenge, with awesome hills to get the legs pumping and amazing descents to get the heart racing. Taking in the best of the varied landscape of Surrey Hills and North Downs, all 3 courses are based in the heart of this area of outstanding natural beauty. Although this area is known for its hills, everything is rideable if you have a reasonable level of fitness. A great early season tester, on very quite roads, within a stunning area!

3 different ride lengths (101miles / 70 miles / 39 miles) allows you to pick your challenge for a great day out. The Ups and Downs Sportive starts from the countrys largest vineyard which offers a unique setting for this Wiggle Super Series Sportive.

The Jurassic Beast Sportive is set along Dorset's historic Jurassic Coastline. The Jurassic Beast arguably has some of the best Vistas out of all the UK's sportives, with breath-taking views of, Corfe Castle, Lulworth Cove and Poole Harbour. In addition the Epic route heads north for a loop of the tough hills and stunning views of the Dorset Downs. Quite roads and spectacular scenery waiting at the top of the hills will help you enjoy the challenging climbs!

Watch as several hundred riders including Cyclosport tackle 60 miles in the early SWRC spring sportive in March 2009. One of the most watched video's we have produced.

One of the hardest sportives in the UK, the MEGA challenge packs in over 4,500m of climbing over 140 miles with a mountaintop finish, up Bwlch Penbarras. Watch this incredible footage as Dave and the boys spend 10 hours in the saddle. Awesome.

45, 70 and 100 mile courses in the scenic and serene South Downs.  First held on the 18th October 2009.

We jumped at the chance to experience the roads around Lancashire and the Trough of Bowland. We weren't disappointed. Surely the quitest place to cycling in England? Some severly tough climbs before heading back to Lancaster. Beware this is for string men (and women) only.

Considered the hardest climb in the UK in a Sportive, the 33% slopes are a killer. Fred Whitton riders hit these climbs after 100 miles. It's no wonder this ride's reputation accounts for the record sellout of this event in less than half a day!

Watch us climb it fresh!

Wow what a day, the sun was shining and we sampled the whole Pembrokeshire experience from the Preseli mountains to the coolest surfer beaches in the UK. Great day out that had us crawling back to the start after over 100 miles. Well recommended!

Part 3 of the 2009 Fred Whitton. Watch the next wave of riders tackle the 33% gradients of Hardnknott Pass!
