Portishead Peaky Blinder and Cheeky Grinder

Welcome to the Peaky Blinder & Cheeky Grinder!

One event, pick your route or combination of routes and any number of laps of either. The Peaky Blinder takes place on local roads, while the Cheeky Grinder takes you off onto some of our local gravel trails and bridleways.

You can ride as many laps of either circuit as you want between 9.30am and 3pm, but you must start you last lap of either route before the 3pmcut-off time.  This is to ensure that you have time to enjoy a social drink and some hot food afterwards.

The final routes will be published two weeks before the event. This is to provide the best options depending on the conditions at the time.

The Peaky Blinder route (Road) will be around 35 miles long.

The Cheeky Grinder route (Gravel) will be around 25-30 miles long and will be published 2 weeks before the event. The route will use our local knowledge to take in the small lanes, bridleways, tracks, drove roads and green lanes. Suitable for Gravel/CX/Adventure bikes, or MTB.  

Both routes start and finish from Haiko Cycling. You will find our fantastic feed station here as well as the included drink of your choice and hot food from 12pm onwards when you've called it a day. The social element of the event is part of its DNA. We are a local cycling club and not a commercial organiser.

Can I bring 2 bikes? If you want to bring a gravel bike and a road bike that’s great. We’ll provide a secure ticketed area for safe storage, you can of course use your own lock as well for additional peace of mind.
