Starting from Alfreton, an ideal first 300 with a few moderate climbs before and after Skegness. 1141m total climbing.
This classic sportive, named after and on the same route as the original Tour of the Peak road race, which ran from 1943 through to 2005, is steeped in cycling history; you will follow in the wheel tracks of some of the top original British bike racers who have graced these roads.
The long route is probably one of the toughest challenges that can be done at 115 miles and over 10,000ft of climbing, it certainly isn't to be underestimated! A little more tame but still with the Killer Mile of Winnats Pass, the medium route is 62 miles and manages to squeeze in over 5000ft of climbing - a great starting point if you're looking for a challenge and the long route is just too much! Bakewell Showground gives you beautiful surroundings to start and finish your day.

The Flat 100, is possibly the Flatest sportive in the country. Not everyone wants to find a Top 100 Climb on an event so to buck the trend we have sought out a route where you dont have to climb a hill. Some people do find this a big attraction and the event is very popular, so join us for a great day out. It really is a must do ride, the feedback we get tells us this and entries go very fast so be sure to enter early!
