How’s this for something a little different? On Sunday April 24 you can take to the saddle on a vintage or classic bike (new-fangled modern contraptions also welcome though) for a jaunt around Lancashire. Two distances are available: “The Trial” (£12.50) a 53mile circular route featuring challenging climbs previously utilised in the Tour of Britain, and “The Cauldron” (£4.50) a 13mile novice route that still offers up two chewy climbs but has the added attraction of a two mile freewheel downhill.
Race HQ for both events is the Craven Heifer Pub, Rawtenstall (map details here). Proceeds go to both Cancer Research and local charity Stepping Stones.
Postal entries only, available via
