Event Calendar

Our events are open to all riders and kinds of bike! Events listed as MTB or CX are all open to any off road capable bike - MTB event courses are designed more for mountain bikes but are also rideable on gravel/CX bikes (care may be needed on some sections). CX/ Gravel events are also open to MTBs; mixed surfaces and longer / faster courses give you a great workout! We also welcome E-bikes on all of our open hill events events (which is everything except Battle in the Bowl). You can find specific bike information on individual event pages.

The Ridgeway Returns!

The Ridgeway 100 will be back in 2022!

The Ridgeway 100 returns! This fantastic kilometre century features an out and back format, using the very best riding on the magnificent ridge! Starting and finishing in the same place, there’s no return transport worries too!

107, 86 & 48km options!

Fancy a great ride without going the full 100km? We’ve added a shorter Ridgeway 50 (48km) option, and an 86km ride too! There really is a ride for everyone on the Ridgeway 100!

Ride 107k on the Ridgeway in a day!

 (or pick the 48km or NEW 86km route option!)

The Ridgeway is Europe’s oldest continually used highway. Dating back thousands of years, this was a prehistorically important route, with many ancient landmarks along it’s length, and ending at the magnificent stone circles of Avebury (which predates Stonehenge by some 700 years!)

Today, the Ridgeway remains a popular recreational route, and a fantastic long distance off road trail! Faster paced and less extreme than the South Downs Way, the Ridgeway is a fantastic gravel bike ride and gives you plenty to get your teeth into. The route keeps you high up and offers continuous sweeping views, with just enough dips and diversions along the ridge to keep your climbing / descending muscles ticking over! The surface only occasionally gets semi-technical, leaving you with 100km of very rideable trail to enjoy! It’s a ride that invites you to open up your engines, and test how long you can keep them running!

And we make sure that all you have to think about is riding. Our team have over 20 years experience running long distance off road challenges, and detailed knowledge of the Ridgeway itself. The Ridgeway 100 Century to the Stones is fully supported, from route marking to multiple feed and support stops, so all you have to do is concentrate on taking on this epic ride!

Event support vehicles & mechanical assistance
Our support vehicles will be traveling along the route on the closest possible roads, and will be equipped to help with mechanical problems and basic first aid. However, please note that getting assistance to any point on the Ridgeway may involve considerable distances and can take a long time. Riders will be expected to carry basic tools and spares, and a small, basic first aid pack. Your first and best option is always to fix yourself if you can; if you can’t we’ll be there to help.
