The Severn Bridge Sportive returns on Sunday 30 August 2015, with riders getting a rare chance to cross the iconic Severn Bridge using the closed motorway rather than the cycle path.
Now in its fifth year, the Severn Bridge Sportive offers riders the choice of a 100km or a 100-mile route through some of the best countryside the area has to offer - and riders don't need to decide on the route they are taking until they reached the split point!
Each route will be comprehensively signed, with well stocked feed stations out on the route, motorcycle outrider support and first aid cover from the team at MediBikes.
Mechanical support will be provided on the day both at the start and at the feed stations and there is also a support car out on the road.
High5 will be the nutrition partner ensuring that all riders have the chance to fuel efficiently for the day's rides whichever route they choose. There will also be free hot food at the finish of what organisers describe as a "super friendly sportive."
Family cycling festival
Whilst the sportive riders are out on the road, the Family Cycling Day will take place at the historic north Wiltshire Castle Coombe race circuit. Cyclists young and oldare welcome to turn up on the day and ride the smooth, traffic-free 2 mile circuit.
The Circuit Challenge will be taking place again, where you can see how many laps you can do in the day with prizes on offer for fastest laps. The event will also feature an exhibitor area and British Cycling Go-Ride cycling skills sessions - plus the café, ice cream van and bouncy castle!
