Four cyclists ride on a grassy path with a large historic castle and a church spire in the background. The sky is blue with wispy clouds, and the terrain appears slightly hilly, surrounded by greenery.

Organiser's Description

One of the highest rated major sportives in the UK, the event still maintains a club-like atmosphere and camaraderie. The challenging landscape of the Chilterns means that its two routes are as testing as they are stunning, taking in infamous climbs such as Whiteleaf Hill and Wardrobes. The Grand Fondo, 110 miles with 2,700m of climb , is relentless in its pursuit of hills, with 21 in all; the Medio Fondo has 1,897m of climb and provides possibly the toughest 76 mile challenge one can find. 'The UK’s most prestigious sportive.'
