The Trossachs Ton now offers the Double Duke; two ascents of the Dukes Pass on the Champion route - this charity cycling sportive just got a whole lot better and will offer riders old and new a fresh cycling challenge. This is one of the best ride outs in Scotland in an area of outstanding beauty with mountains and forests, making this bike ride such a pleasure despite the hills.
Starting out from Stirling with a choice of three distances, the Cool 33 mile route is ideal if you’re new to cycling. The Classic 75 mile route is more challenging with Crow Road and a single Duke and the Champion at 106 miles is ideal if you’re an experienced Sportive rider.
