The flatlands here are called the Fens, we have specifically chosen this location and time of year, as its flat and fast and an ideal opportunity to crack the 100-mile distance.
The whole area is a fine network of medium and small roads; so many that on a map they will look like lacework and they best part is they are FLAT.
This is a great ride if you do not like hills, there is only one !!! and even that is more of a bump.
With aid stations and on course support, you ride, we will help you finish.
Starting and finishing at Newark Showground.
Strictly limited to 750 riders.
