Southwold Sportive and Roubaix

Pedal Revolution in partnership with Adnams are thrilled to announce an exciting new event at the start of the cycling calendar. ‘The Southwold Cycle Sportive’, featuring ‘The Southwold Roubaix Sportive’ will be held on the 8th April 2018 in the picturesque seaside town.

The Southwold Cycle Sportive is a recreational cycle ride with routes and distances to suit all ages and abilities. It will feature 25 and 50 mile routes as well as a family friendly ride. Held mainly on quiet roads each route will incorporate optional rough and unmade paths. Our family ride should take you just one hour to cycle – perfect for little legs!

The Southwold ‘Roubaix’ Sportive is our tribute to the famous Paris-Roubaix a gruelling road race renowned for its cobbles, crashes, broken bikes and exhausted riders caked in mud and muck. Held on the same day as the famed race, our tribute to this classic will be gentler than the Arenberg Forest, but will still feature several sections of rough, unmade paths or cobbles. The 75 mile route will head to Woodbridge where riders will stop for lunch before heading back to Southwold.

Your rewards for completing this unusual challenge will be the warm welcome from the many Adnams establishments along the way for rest & refreshments and the cheer you receive as you sprint to the finish line for your medal and goodie bag.

Fully supported with mobile mechanic and ‘broom wagon’, drink stops along the way and a huge choice of cafés, pubs and restaurants in Southwold for coffee and cake, or Sunday Lunch
