The Soutwold Roubaix - Covid-19 Compliant
The Pedal Revolution Events are thrilled to announce the return of this unique road season opening cycling event. Our 3rd edition of ‘The Southwold Roubaix” will return to a Suffolk on Saturday 24th October 2020.
The Southwold Roubaix’ is our tribute to the famous Paris-Roubaix a gruelling road race renowned for its cobbles, crashes, broken bikes and exhausted riders caked in mud and muck. Held the day before the famed race, our tribute to this classic will be gentler than the Arenberg Forest, but will still feature several sections of rough, unmade paths or cobbles.
It is a recreational cycle ride with routes and distances to suit all ages and abilities. It will feature 25, 50 and 75 mile routes as well as a family friendly ride. Held mainly on quiet roads each route will incorporate optional rough and unmade paths. Our family ride should take you just one hour to cycle – perfect for little legs!
Fully supported with mobile mechanic, ‘broom wagon’ and drink stops along the way, prepare for all the British weather can throw at you and look forward to a well earned chunky medal and warm welcome upon your return.
This event is in compliance with British Cycling’s latest update regarding Covid-19. We are following the “Ride in up to groups of 6 and 1 metre plus mitigations“.
