NEW HQ and Route Updates for 2025!
We have moved the Start/ Finish to the awesome Oulton Park where we’ll enjoy great facilities and loads of parking space! It’s also more accessible and avoids heading into Crewe.
We’ve also updated the routes to spread the feeds out more evenly and we explore a few new roads this year!
We explore some of the best roads in the area, always seeking out great scenery, and avoiding cars and busy sections.
The Cheshire Classic isn’t meant to be the toughest event in the World. The 3 route choices of 60/ 100/ 160km all have around 1% vert. It’s an opportunity to get a distance/ speed record, perhaps push on further than before in a well-supported event or ease yourself back in after a summer off.
We’ve got feed stops at Wrenbury which the Medium and Long call at twice (short once) and Norton Hale which serves the long loop.
Our feeds are always well stocked with a fresh brew, fresh ‘real food’ as well as your favourite ride nutrition from High5. At the finish we have a great medal as well as post ride BBQ and a chilled can of Erdinger Alkoholfrei.
We get a great level of Female participation in our Cheshire based events with the Female only start slot always a popular choice. We’d love to see more Female riders at all our Sportives.
A great day out for all, whatever your ability.
