This was my 1st '2 Wheels and a piece of cake'. Such a well organized ride. The route was signposted well and was absolutely beautiful. I did the 50 miler. The cakes were amazing as well, all homemade. Everyone was so friendly and kind.
I came over from Sicily to do the ride for Cancer Research. I was on my own, but a lovely group of ladies from Belper let me tag along and I had the most amazing ride with them.
I was slightly surprised to see that there weren't so many ladies taking part. Perhaps the event needs advertising more.
The weather was also brilliant, so that was a plus. Will definitely do it again. Well done to Lottie and her team. And thank you for the goodie bag and lunch.

Organiser's description

Three routes for this ladies only event. A 24 mile loop around Belvoir Castle takes in quiet country lanes and pretty villages - undulating with nearly 1200ft of climbing overall. The 50 mile route is more challenging, and offers 2,300ft of climbing, up the ridge 3 times to get your heart pumping. For those of you looking for an extra challenge try the 70 mile route, with 3290 feet of climbing. Two well spaced and well stocked feed stations will keep you refuelled.
