A new innovative sportive offering you the ultimate day of riding, packed full of unique experiences, breath taking vista and stunning scenery.
This 3 part sportive- Starts from the iconic New Forest National Park. The route sweeps south through the forest through picturesque villages with wild animals grazing at the roadside before arriving at Lymington where your timing will stop. You will board the next ferry, cross the Solent and arrive on the Isle of Wight. Your time will start again as you continue the 2nd part of your sportive around the sensational Isle of Wight. The route will head clock wise around the island and is jammed packed with quiet roads and coastline vistas! In no time you will arrive back at Yarmouth. Your time will stop and you will take the ferry back to the mainland. The final leg is a short ride back through the forest to the finish!
Combining 2 of the UK areas of outstanding natural beauty, along with a unique ferry trip, we believe makes this 3 part sportives one of the most enjoyable and truly special sportive the UK has to offer! Summer Cycling does not get better than this!
In addition to the Epic 100 mile route, there is a Standard 70 mile route. The shorter route still does a complete lap of the Isle of Wight but has a shorter New Forest section.
The Wight Ferry Sportive entry fee include your return ferry trip, all you need to do is turn up and ride
