Cyclo Sportive

Sophie Colwell of the Challenges charity ahs asked me to post the following:

CTC South West London

Hilly 50 km

Hi all was sent this today I did this sportive last year and must say it is well organised and great challenging ride.

I will be doing this ride next year again and will be staying in Torquay which is just down the road from the start.

Hope to see some Redhill shirts there .

As a past participant of the Dartmoor Classic Sportive we thought you would love to know the next edition is taking place on Sunday 2nd July 2017.

Individual ballot entries are up: https://www.ridelondon.co.uk/

Seems Prudential aren't sponsoring this year, does anyone know who is?

I assume the team entries comes much later, like last year?

Folks

So we can plan the logistics of potentially working together and meeting up on the 2nd August, please could everyone who is doing the London 100 enter their start details on the following online spreadsheet.

Thanks, Adrian

This is a nice early season sportive, 74 miles, good route, not too hilly.  Limited to 300 riders so quite a relaxed event. £15 entry. in aid of Kent Air Ambulance.

Groups from RCC have done it in previous years.  

Here's the info:>

Here's the online entry form:>

Since our own RCC/YMCA Redhill Rollercoaster Sportive will not be run in 2015, it does seem to be worthwhile looking if there are any local Sportives that it would be nice to have an RCC "presence" at.

While ones like the Reigate Rouleur and other commercially run Sportives are OK, IMO it would be nice to try and support Sportives run for/by charities (local if possible).

If you're happy to share your wave/start times here, it will help folk work out who they may be able to work with in an RCC shirt on the day.

I'm a 7.10am start

Start area: Blue

Wave: E

Afterwards, if you want to meet up gather on the grass close to Marble Arch past the bag collection area. Some of you may be there too long and want to load your bikes straight to the van which will be parked in Frazier Street, London SE1 7BD, south east of Baylis Road and Waterloo station.
