Event Information

A comprehensive event guide has been posted out to all riders in their rider packs, along with laminated bike numbers and route cards. It will also be available here by 1st August in PDF form.

The Devil Ride is a fully supported European-style cyclosportive:

• Comprehensively and clearly way-marked route
• Detailed route cards with Ordnance Survey mapping as backup (and to drool over in advance)
• Electronic timing
• Individual times available immediately at the event centre. Full list of finish times published on event website within 24 hours
• Three food and drink stations out on the route
• Broom wagon, mechanics and 1st aid
• Supported by the National Motorcycle Escort Group
• Photos of all riders available for purchase on the web
• Gold, Silver and Bronze standards will be awarded, with certificates issued at the finish
• Stylish souvenir cycling jersey in technical fabric available for £39 (must be ordered by May 14th)
• "Goody bottle" – a high quality bidon (same type as the popular SIS bottle with the rubber spout) with some goodies inside
• Bike shop at the event centre before and after
• Changing, toilets and showers

As part of our association with Orbea we will be offering a brand new Orca frameset (srp £1699.99) to one lucky finisher - the winner will be picked out of a hat on the day as the Devil Ride is not a race and so we won't be giving any prizes for performance.

The Orca has a legitimate claim to the title of ultimate sportive bike - as well as being a superb piece of kit - perfectly suited to fast sportive riding or to racing - it looks like a work of art too. Nice a bad day's outing for the fortunate recipient!
