    Hi there,

    Looking for some tips. Cycling previously limited to triathlons – so just flat TTs really – but looking to branch out into road cycling after ACL reconstruction scuppered running plans.

    Looking to enjoy the more social side of cycling as well, time to enjoy things a bit more. Having said that I am pretty fit and want to stay that way. Anyway, with all that in mind – what are the ‘must do’ sportives in UK? I am in South Wales and know there are a few round here. Not afraid of a challenge – but want a good atmosphere too.

    Any advice greatly received.

    Cheers,

    Rhod

    The Dartmoor Classic is great
    The Dartmoor Classic is great, tough, but the atmosphere is brilliant.
    Don’t think anyone has mentioned the Fred Whitton yet. If it isn’t the toughest, it is the yardstick against which all the others are judged.
    I love Ridelondon, the sheer number of bikes, the closed roads and the London landmarks are just the best day out on a bike you can have. You go hard for 95 miles, you’re knackered, and then you’re on the Embankment with Admiralty Arch and Pall Mall around the corner, and you go again like a mad bastard.

    Greatest is probably the
    Greatest is probably the London Prudential 100. Any event where thousands turn up and have an interesting course.
