Squires and Spires Sportive

Date & Location

Organiser’s Description

This themed event takes riders on a tour past many country houses, including Althorpe House and Cottesbrooke Hall, and is littered with ancient churches and villages made famous by the English Civil war. Northamptonshire is not known for its mountains or extreme terrain so many riders are surprised by how tough the route proves to be, especially the final third. A choice of two distances.
