The UKCE New Forest Classic - Saturday

Sat 11th April 2026

Three cyclists ride on a quiet road in a rural landscape, under a partly cloudy sky. Two brown horses graze beside the road amidst greenery and shrubs. One cyclist wears a black outfit and helmet, and the other two wear bright, colorful attire. Three cyclists, wearing helmets and medals, stand beside their bikes holding up bottles of drink. They are outdoors with other cyclists and tents visible in the background. The cyclists are smiling and appear to be celebrating their achievement.

This was my first cycling event and it was amazing. The route was stunning, road surfaces were great and the whole thing was organised really well.
