Nottingham Road Cycling Events

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.

Welcome to "The North Derbyshire Challenge" sportive offers four distances covering North Derbyshire and the Peak District and will prove a memorable ride with gorgeous scenery and some challenging hills.

Three distances are on offer, all of which take in Derbyshire and Leicestershire's fantastic scenery, on mainly quiet roads heading out as far as Cannock Chase on the 160km route, whilst the 80km and 40km routes take in country lanes around Tutbury, Needwood Thurvaston and Dalbury.

Sportive HQs cycling events are becoming legendary, riders that know our events understand why they sell out so quick, dont miss out on the latest instalment, the King Edward 100!

The King Edward 100 named after the King Edward the Elder, who established the Saxon Manor house in Newark, in the 11th Century, later to become the site of Newark Castle is a classic choice of routes for another of Sportive HQs great value sportives. With fantastic HQ location less than 5 minutes from the A1 its easy to get to from many directions!

Having some of the quietest roads we have ever seen, we wanted to share with you some fantastic riding along these lanes around North Nottinghamshire and Lincolnshire. A few hills early on in the ride followed by some long straight flats into some of the most scenic villages Ancaster, Folkingham and Heckington to name but a few. On the longer routes you dont have to confirm your distance until after the feed station, so see how you feel on the day, no pressure.
