Come and explore a varied landscape of ancient towns, gentle hills and unspoilt shingle beaches - and to raise money for the charity of your choice. With a choice of three routes there is something for everyone!
35 and 60 Mile Road Routes
There are two circular, on road routes of approx 35 or 60 miles, taking you over gentle wooded hills through unspoilt countryside to where the Garden of England meets the Sea! Starting in Ashford, both routes head back in time across Romney Marsh. At Newchurch, the shorter route follows quiet country lanes through pretty villages, while the longer route heads on towards the coast at St. Mary's Bay and through the open landscape of the Denge and Walland marshes to the ancient smuggler's capital' of Rye, bringing you back across the Isle of Oxney through Tenterden.
Family Ride 5 Miles Off Road
For those with younger children, there's a chance to join in the fun with a 5 mile circular, all off-road route.
The 5 mile family route starts and finishes in North Park, just like the bigger rides, but takes an off road route to Wyvern School Clockhouse site using local cycle paths.
