Struggle Dales Sportive
Event info
Struggle Dales is one of the UK's most iconic sportives, set in the beautiful but challenging Yorkshire Dales landscape. The next Struggle Dales sportive will take place on Sunday 26 May 2019 and entries are now open while places last.
The renowned Struggle Dales Yorkshire sportive isn't one to be taken lightly, but with prior training, grit and guts it's achievable for almost any ambitious road cyclists.
Struggle Dales sportive begins in the beautiful spa town of Harrogate, North Yorkshire; making it an ideal weekend break for you and your support crew. The epic Yorkshire sportive takes riders over 108 miles of stunning yet unforgiving Yorkshire Dales terrain.
The tough sportive route has claimed cult status nationwide, with riders travelling hundreds of miles year after year to tackle the gruelling challenge again and again. Cycling Weekly reviewed it as: "One of the best sportive events in the UK."

What hardship is Jim Davidson facing? The realisation that he's an outdated washed up celebrity who has been firmly told that he is not above the law?
What region though? My experiences of Strathclyde are that they're not really bothered unless it's a KSI. I remember one time having a chat with...
Do they scream "exterminate" and fire lasers at errant motorists though?
