East Suffolk Sportive

East Suffolk is gearing up for a thrilling cycling celebration as the Lloyd’s Tour of Britain Men returns to our region on 2 September 2025 and we’re kicking things off early with a special East Suffolk Sportive on Sunday 31 August!

Whether you're a seasoned cyclist or simply looking for a fun day out, there’s something for everyone, from scenic cycle routes to family-friendly entertainment at Kingston Field in Woodbridge.

Choose between a 50km scenic loop (£20) or a 100km challenge (£30), both starting from Kingston Field and winding through the stunning East Suffolk countryside. Riders will benefit from broom wagon support, feed stations, clearly signed routes, free downloadable photos, a goodie bag, and a customised t-shirt.

Entry fees also support Suffolk Mind, a local mental health charity. Plus, early bird riders who sign up in the first two weeks will be entered into a prize draw to win either two VIP hospitality tickets to the Tour of Britain or a signed jersey, perfect for any cycling fan.
