A challenging, hilly route through the beautiful Hampshire countryside. Starting and finishing at Sparsholt College in Winchester, the 2021 edition of one of the hardest sportives on our calendar and will combine all the most challenging climbs that Hampshire has to offer. From Beacon Hill, Watership Down and Windmill Hill to name a few there will be plenty of hills putting meaning behind the name! You'll be treated to beautiful woodland, stunning countryside, quaint villages and of course, amazing views from the tops of the climbs. But with those ups, must come downs! With over 4,000ft of climb on the 100mile course, there is the same amount of descent for you to enjoy!
With a fully signed and marshalled course with feed stations along the route supporting you all the way, there's no reason why you should wait in ticking off one of the best sportives in the country. Full mechanical support is available on the route and a medal, drinks, snacks and chipped timing await those who finish. If the 100mile route is a bit too much, we have a mid length distance at 67 miles.

I went out for a couple of beers on a lovely sunny day yesterday in central Illinois, USA. Sunny, but 6 °F / -14 °C.
I ride it every day, as I work just off Park Street. You know, I have noticed that going down it is a lot easier than going up
Partly agree - and the great thing with cycling is it can be "a little here, a bit more there" - it's local so it could still flourish in just a...
