Leicester Road Cycling Events

Welcome to Cycle Live Nottingham.

The Sheriff just got even badder in 2018. Five Cat 5 climbs and a leg destroying Cat 4 climb are yours for the conquering!

The Little John is a 100 Mile Sportive with one Cat 5 Climb.

The Maid Marian is a very popular choice for those stepping up from 50 miles or fancying an easier day than the 100 miles.

The Friar returns with the same curves, undulations and enjoyable riding experience that keeps people coming back year on year.

The Robin Hood is 25 Miles of fun suitable for families.

The Tommy Godwin Challenge sportive was set up in 2013 to honour the memory of 1948 Olympic cycling medallist Tommy Godwin. All profits go to fund the West Midlands Marie Curie Hospice in Solihull where Tommy spent his last few days. So far we have raised over 60,000.

There are three routes, 30, 73 and 100km. The 30km ride is for families and the less experienced cyclists. The more challenging 100km sportive route and the intermediate 73km sportive route both have a refreshment stop and timing. The well-signed routes wend their way through the Warwickshire lanes, with the 100km sportive making a brief foray into Worcestershire via Feckenham. There are a couple of fords en route for the adventurous, but don't worry there are alternative paths! With only a couple of climbs, it's the ideal end of season event both for the experienced rider and those looking for their first sportive after a summer of training.

Join us at East Carlton Country Park and say Arrivederci to the summer with one last day out on the bike, with plenty of real food at the feedstations, hot food and a beer on your return.

For our fifth visit to the area, weve teamed up with Cycling Mallory, an exciting new organisation devoted to all things cycling.

Based from the impressive Mallory Park in the heart of the Leicestershire countryside, were ideally setup for a great days riding. Not only is this a fantastic location to start a ride, all participants will get a couple of laps on the motor circuit included in the entry fee! Once youve warmed up on the track, its straight out into the countryside for an autumn-winter road fest. The routes are fairly flat with undulating sections but a great chance to clock up some end of year miles. Quiet country lanes form the most part and make for a fantastic day in the saddle, whether youre taking on the 30, 50 or 70 mile option.

Once youve burnt enough calories to start thinking about the following months festivities, head back to the event centre for a finishing warm down lap and hot chocolate.
