Dorset 100 Mile Etape plus 70, 50, 30, 20 and 10 miles routes
The Dorset 100 mile Etape is a new challenging sportive ride through Dorset’s great country side. The route has been put together with the help of the Purbeck Peloton Cycle Club and has been designed for those who have ridden in similar events.
