Evans Cycles Gatwick Sportive Cross

Sportive Cross is our mixed terrain event series that’s designed with cyclocross and adventure road bikes in mind. They’re an ideal way to add some extra interest to your riding especially over the winter months not only helping to keep you fit but also great for testing your bike handling skills. You can expect roughly a 50:50 mix of road and off road sections on the local bridleway or byways and with this ride we’ve pretty much managed to tick the full list of terrains featuring everything from smooth tarmac to gravel, grass, sand and mud sections.

Based at the Evans Cycles Head Office, this is an established ride with a very well refined route. Researched and developed by various members of the Evans outfit, we believe this is as a good a day of riding as you’ll get in the south-east.As with all RIDE IT classic events, there will be a choice of route distances, friendly staff and likeminded riders throughout. This route also overlaps with sections of our flagship event King of the Downs, so if you enjoy it and fancy a slightly tougher challenge, check it out later in the year.
