This event started in 1998 when club member, Keith Shorten, recognised that sportive-type rides were the next big thing in cycling in the UK.  He then spent a series of Sundays devising a route to link the biggest climbs in the part of the Chilterns where we ride most weeks.  Until 2013 it was run as a club event, but we then decided that Keith's route was too good to keep to ourselves and would like to invite other local, and not so local, cyclists to join us.

All the events are reliability rides which have a target speed range of 12.5mph - 18mph. That equates to about 3½-5 hours for the long ride, 2-3 hours for the medium and 1.5-2.5 hours for the short version.  We expect that there will be some fast riders but, for avoidance of doubt, the events are not races.  Riders will be set off at intervals to reduce the risks from riding in large bunches on narrow lanes.
