The London Phoenix Cycling Club invites you to the 11th Easter Classic - Easter Monday, 2nd April 2018.
There are two routes on offer – 113km and 54km. Both routes will be fully signposted and will take you through quiet, flat and green country lanes of Essex. Lycra or no lycra, Dogma F10, tandem or unicycle, all welcome. Yes, the sportive is timed. The event is usually a sell-out because of the great route, the relaxed ambience and the homemade baked goods, so register early to avoid disappointment.
The longer route will pass through the villages of Good Easter and High Easter, and features a mid-way feed station at Pleshey village hall where you'll be able to enjoy free hot/cold drinks and our legendary oat bars and other wholesome goodies. Indoor space in the hall and a big field behind are your options for relaxing, whatever the weather. Toilets also available.
