Gran Fondo Isle of Man

Gran Fondo Isle of Man is the only true competitive Gran Fondo event staged in the British Isles this year. It will be held on a mostly closed roads 137 km parcours on Sunday 5th September. This year’s Gran Fondo is a qualification round for the prestigious 2021 UCI Gran Fondo World Series.

This year competitors can also tackle our all-new Individual Time Trial, also a UCI qualifying round, taking in the climb of Snaefell Mountain on the infamous Isle of Man TT motorcycle racing circuit on Saturday 4th September.  The parcours covers just 9 km but should not be underestimated, with a total of 400 meters of climbing to overcome.

For recreational riders who want to test themselves that little bit further, the 72 km Medio Fondo boasts one of the Island’s most challenging ascents – as well as one of its very best descents –  while the 32k Piccolo Fondo, aimed at families and beginners, winds its way around the flatter farmland of the Island’s northern plains.
