Now in its fourth year, this winter gem is not to be missed! Starting just south of Basingstoke, we’re perfectly set up for a great day in the saddle. After leaving the event centre, we’re quickly out into the countryside and enjoying a seasonal spin that should keep you warm in the December air! The route is mostly undulating and is one of the flatter rides of the series, but will still throw up a credible 4,600 ft of climbing (long route). Riders will head east and then south along quiet country lanes before skirting the South Downs for the return leg. As with all RIDE IT events, there will be a choice of route distances, friendly staff and hot drinks at the finish.
This ride is a fantastic opportunity to explore the Hampshire countryside and clock up some winter miles, all of course whilst getting in good stead for the festive period and year ahead.
