Spring Forward 2025 Sportive
May 4
£39
New Venue:
For our 2025 ride we’re heading to Hanbury where we’ll be taking over their village hall to create a pop up cafe and bike shop where you’ll be able to grab a bacon sandwich and proper coffee shop coffee, then browse the bargains before heading out on the bike to mull over what you might buy when you get back!
New Route:
This year we’re delving deeper than ever into north Staffordshire in search of some testing hills that make up the first half of the route before dropping back down through Cheadle and Uttoxeter to tackle a finalé that features a number of shorter climbs to keep things interesting onthe return leg. Something for the grimpeurs and the puncheurs in equal measure.
New Format:
For 2025 we’re moving away from the town center start and finish that’s been the tradition for Spring Forward and relocating to a more rural setting where we can offer you everything you need for the day in one place. The new location also means a cap on numbers, compact and bijou, you can call it a boutique sportive if you want to sound posh.
What’s included?
Entry fee for the ride includes a fully signed route on the day plus support for the ride along the way. Here’s what’s included:
At the Start:
The HQ will feature a pop up PAU Cafe and bike shop, so expect to be able to lay your hands on bacon baps, bargains and any last minute assistance you need to get your bike on the road. HQ opens at 8am, you can start your ride from 9am
Along the way:
We’ve included a half way refreshment stop on this ride. At the feed we’ll have hot food and drink, plus top up snacks for the road and the opportunity for a toilet stop should you need to.
