The UKCE Cambridgeshire Classic

Sat 7th March 2026

Two cyclists raise their arms in celebration while riding along a scenic, tree-lined rural road. They wear brightly colored gear — one in orange and the other in pink. Both are smiling, with other cyclists visible in the background. The weather is clear and sunny. A group of cyclists ride on a rural road with trees in the background. The lead cyclist is focused ahead while wearing a black and white jersey, and others follow closely behind. The early spring foliage and clear skies provide a picturesque setting. Three individuals in cycling gear are posing with their bikes and wearing medals around their necks. They are outdoors, on a sunny day, with tents and other cyclists visible in the background. The cyclists are smiling and seem to have participated in a biking event.

Organiser's Description

Your adventure begins at the iconic Huntingdon Racecourse. All routes immediately whisk you past the ancient beauty of Brampton Wood and around the stunning perimeter of Grafham Water.

Want a challenge? The Long Route is a captivating contradiction: it delivers a continuously undulating, rewarding ride with nearly 650m of vertical ascent - all without ever cresting 85m above sea level!

The journey itself is an exploration, taking you on an unforgettable loop through three counties: Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, and, on the long route, a brief but brilliant dash into the East Midlands' Northamptonshire. Prepare to be treated to kilometre after kilometre of blissfully quiet country lanes, framed by a beautiful, ever-changing backdrop of lush forestry and pristine farmland.

After an exhilarating day of pedalling, your effort will be richly rewarded! Cross the finish line to claim your well-deserved finisher's medal and exclusive goodies from our partners.

This event is a hot ticket! Last year's Cambridgeshire Classic sold out fast, leaving many cyclists on the sidelines. Secure your spot now to guarantee your place on the starting line of this premier cycling season opener!

Very well organised with friendly staff both before a d after the event. Good communication before the event with good level of detail. Course very well sign posted . Route was very good and avoided main roads apart from just one or two very short stretches. Just one or two of the roads had poor surfaces ( big potholes) which given the rain made it a bit tricky at times but nothing to detract from the event. Not 100% sure about the free bottle beer at the end though !
