A Beginner’s Guide to Sportive Riding
What to Expect in a Velo29 Sportive
Combined with FEMME YORKSHIRE for 2025! Due to decreasing numbers in Femme 2024, we’ve combined the 2 events into 1 day of riding. We will have a female only group start time of 08:00 (after the Ripon depart) as well as a Femme specific medal!
3 great routes as always, if hills are your thing then go Long for The Buttertubs (from Hawes) and Robin Cross Hill as well as Grinton Moor! The Medium has lumps between the 2 Thornton Watlass Feeds, the Short we’ve done our best to keep it as flat as we can!
Well stocked feeds every 25 miles, brilliant signage and miles of smiles as with every Velo29 Sportive.
A lovely mid-summer Sportive taking in a lot of what Yorkshire has to offer. The little lanes West of the A1 are superb, some of our favourite riding!
