Tour of Britain Celebration Ride

On the 6th September join us on cycling some of the route that will be undertaken by the Tour of Britain riders as they pass through Allerdale on the 8th September. There will be two routes: 1 - A shorter SKYRIDE route (you can book a place in advance through the SKYRIDE website) return ride to Allonby (10 miles) 2 - A longer group return ride to Silloth and retun via the B5301 through Holme St Cuthbert and Mawbray Both rides are open to everyone, the whole family can get involved. The shorter route will be a lead ride with qualified leaders supporting you all the way with regular stops if required to catch your breath. The longer ride will be a group ride, although everyone can take it at their own pace, we'll have front and back markers so you wont get lost or left behind, maps will be available on the day. There are bikes available to use from the Wave (including electric bikes), if you would like to use one, then please book with the Wave Centre in advance on 01900 811450 so we can make sure they are ready for you on the day. Registration will be from 9.45am at the Wave. The longer ride will leave first at about 10.30am and the shorter following at 11am. Bring a picnic and both groups will meet on the front at Allonby, enjoy a well earned break and the views from 11.30am before setting on the return leg together at around noon.
