Somerset Screamer Sportive
GTC's first and favourite Sportive Event - the Screamer, here on our home patch, taking in simply the most wonderful and diverse landscapes one could possibly pack into a day's riding. From the reed lined moorland lanes, to the grandeur of Cheddar Gorge, to the mystery of Glastonbury Tor, to the history of Wells Cathedral, and the pre-history of Iron Age Ham Hill, this ride certainly packs a punch. 84 wonderful and memorable miles. Get your riding legs on... it's time for action!

They don't make them like they used to
