The short route is ideal for beginners, even if you have never taken part in an event before this is just 25 miles with a feed stop part way round for you to have a break, cup of tea and a bite to eat before continuing your day’s cycle ride. You don’t need any particular bike to take part, as long as it’s road worthy, it will be fine. Same with clothing, as long as you are in comfortable clothes to ride a bike that’s fine – why not do it as a sponsored ride for one of the local charities?

The medium and long routes are a little more challenging although taking in some spectacular views along the tops of the Lincolnshire Wolds both routes leave lasting memories for those that have taken part over the years. The medium route is perfect for those wishing for just a few hills here and there with a flatter finish along the coast. The long route tackles the Wolds no less than three times with flat bits in between to recover your legs for that last push (up Caistor Hill) and back into the finish.
