Richmond Cyclosportives

The Riding4RAFA Team are signed up to ride the Cyclosportives at the Richmond Meet on Sat 28 May. 

We'll be taking on the 5 Dale 100 as a final trg ride before the big event.  The 5 Dale 100 is a serious proposition, 100 miles and 6 major climbs at The Stang, Tan Hill, Birkdale Common, Mallerstang, Fleet Moss and Park Rash, with the final 2 ascents in the last half of the route.  In the same league as the Etape du Dales and the Fred Whitton Challenge.  Challenge times: Gold - 6h, Silver - 7h, Bronze - 8h.  I'm sure the views will be fantastic, but the legs are going to hurt!!!



We'll have a RAFA Stand out during the Richmond Meet so come along and keep the support crew company while the riders are out on the hills.  The stand will be out at Richmond Cricket club on the BH Maonday too - come and see us.
