Giant Kendal - Castle Sportive
Event info
No ordinary sportive, it starts and finishes at a castle! Join us at the majestic Lowther Castle for a 100km or 50km ride around some of Cumbria’s quietest and most scenic roads with plenty of stunning views to distract you from the occasional hill. For those that like a challenge there is a Strava ‘feature’ climb on the 100km route with prizes. If you don’t want to ride on your own there will also be groups for each route led by a member of the Giant Kendal Team.
What’s included in your entry
- An awesome day of riding with lots of friendly people!
- Fully signed course
- Free stuff at registration
- Strava segment challenge with prizes (you must join our Strava Group for this)
- Last minute, emergency bike mechanic support at start
- Post-ride food and drink (more details to follow!)
- Two free childrens’ tickets into The Lost Castle at Lowther Castle (must be accompanied by one full paying adult, offer only valid on Sunday 3rd June and is non-transferable)

Been available for quite a while, full GRX mechanical 12 speed. Probably around the same time as 105 mechanical 12 speed if I were to guess.
Less harmful citrus degreaser is easy to find at £8 or less for 5 litres. Works ok for me, even diluted up to 4:1. Both paraffin and white spirit...
Nope, it's to keep your straps down and quieter. Plus most sunglasses are polycarbonate and aren't going to shatter like glass anyway
And, more seriously, where's the coverage of the closure of the cycle lane which forces you to cycle on the Totton bypass.
