Big Wheel
Event info
Registration is now open!
Enjoy a spectacular summer’s day cycling and taking in the views of the local picturesque villages and stunning Hampshire countryside to raise funds for your local charity St. Michael’s Hospice. You can choose to take part in our beginner 5 mile route or intermediate 22 mile route. Alternatively, for those more experienced cyclists or for those less familiar with cycling but who would like a challenge, try our challenger 40 mile route or our advanced 64 mile route! See website for GPX files.
All routes have chip timing and results will be published after the rides are complete.
Free parking is available at Down Grange Sports Complex. Toilets and refreshments will be on site; however, we are unable to provide changing facilities.
