2018 RIDE IT Sussex CX Sportive
Event website: Evans Cycles RIDE IT Events
Summary: Partnered with Crawley Wheelers and hosted alongside round 3 of the Cyclo-Cross National Trophy Series this is a new addition to the RIDE IT series for 2018. A mixed terrain CX sportive in the morning including a chance to test your skills with a starting lap on the National Trophy course then watch the elite riders race in the afternoon after your ride.
The sportive cross course includes a mix of lanes, cycle tracks and bridleways so is suitable for MTB, cyclocross and adventure road bikes with tyres that can handle some off road riding. The route takes heads away from Ardingly past Weir Wood Reservoir before joining the gravel tracks of the Forest Way into East Grinstead. For here it’s some more gravel cycle tracks heading along the Worth Way to the outskirts of Crawley before picking up a series of bridleways through Tilgate Forest and Oldhouse Warren. Continuing on through Balcombe then it’s a picturesque skirt around the edge of Ardingly Reservoir before returning to the finish.
Fees: Adults £22
