Solway Spinner
Event info
The Solway Spinner sportive should definitely feature on your 2019 calendar!
This classic route in north Cumbria offers some of the flattest roads in the county, but you don’t need hills to get great views here. The Solway and coastal roads offer sights of Scotland and the Irish Sea as you ride west from Carlisle towards the Solway Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The route heads through the villages of Port Carlisle and Anthorn, before heading west again at Kirkbride. The feed station awaits you at the seaside town of Silloth, where you can replenish your bidon and then follow the coastal road south towards Mawbray. From here, you will head east via the top tip of Wigton until you get back to Carlisle where a bacon butty and brew awaits you!
With under 500m of elevation, this 100km route is perfect for a fast ride out. It’s also great for those looking to take on their first kilometre century.

Agreed.
They really wouldn't like this one then, it's going to court. Mercedes-Benz GenuineParts. Genuinely better (but not at driving!)
🤣🤣 been using cyclo cross bikes for my commute for years !...
Are you sure?...
Saw Di2 105 for around that price during Black Friday.
Motorists mystified after being fined £100 for 'parking' in retail park at times their cars weren't even there...
I fancied a wheelset at 50% off, but when they realised I was in Spain the discount was only 18% and so no longer attractive or even competetive....
Rubbish. Roads can be design or modified in a way that creates blindspots or uneccessary conflicts.
Picture shows aftermath of crash which saw car go through Spalding pub wall...
