Organiser's description
For our Chilterns Classic event we are heading to the Horspath Athletics and Sports Ground where you’ll start and finish your ride. The routes will take you on a ride through small country lanes and quaint English villages, with the Long and Middle routes entering into the Chilterns AONB. We hope in July the sun will be joining us for the day and it will be a glorious day of Summer Cycling.
Of course, you’ll be rewarded for all your efforts as you cross the finish line to receive a finishers medal, beer from Freedom Brewery and other goodies from our partners at Jimmy’s Iced Coffee and OTE sports. We look forward to seeing you in June and remember with four different routes to choose from, there's something for everyone!
