The Great Western Sportive has been one of the sportive hits of the last two years! The fantastic route on nearly traffic free roads has been a favourite with riders and press alike! And with a full 100 mile top distance and a huge rider capacity, This ride is big every sense!

Rolling across the ancient Ridgeway and winding through the beautiful Marlborough Downs, the route is a real treat, with broad, open roads echoing the sweep of the scenery. The folds of the Downs provide the gradients to put you to the test, but this is a ride to reward you for every challenge, not beat you relentlessly into submission. A riders ride, if you will.
