DarkWhite Cycling Battle of Bradfield Sportive

New Event: Battle of Bradfield (B.O.B) sportive

Following on from the success of the short but hard Autumn sportive, the Matlock Top 10, we bring you the spring version: the Battle of Bradfield.

Starting from Stannington, Sheffield the route promises plenty of smooth roads used on the 2014 Tour de France including the climbs of Midhopestones and Bradfield.

• A clearly signed/arrowed route
• A feed-station providing juice, water, gels/bars and fruit
• Colour route map provided including emergency numbers
