Evans Cycles Sportive RideIt! Hampshire
Our final Sportive of the year! Heading out from our base in South Basingstoke, within a couple of minutes you are into the countryside and away from the traffic. Passing RAF Odiham you then turn South and skirt around the edges of the South Downs before heading back to the event centre. As it’s December we won’t be making you climb mountains or freewheel down long, cold descents. The course is “undulating” with the long coming in at a reasonable 4600ft, and mainly on good sized roads.

Surely Lincolnshire is a prime location for UK cycle infrastructure - after all, it's flat, so should assuage the most common excuse that people...
Yes! 100% a Pace!
I did my first BC intro to coaching course last year and really enjoyed it. But I am not a member of a cycling club and ride with groups of like...
Hmm - crashing off the side of a mountain at 48kmh sounds a lot safer than crashing off the side of a mountain at 55. Yeah....
Churnalism nowadays - mostly clickbait stuff and regurgitation in the local rags/comics and beyond.
I'm glad the barrier wasn't damaged. Whew, close one there! \s
I repurposed a bent rear derailleur hanger into a keyring. It's very useful, and you can use it to open bottles of beer.
My bum hates Flites. Worse saddle ever for me.
