Once again, Russell and Russell is sponsoring Epic Events Cycle Sportive, the Eden Valley Epic. Beginning at Penrith leisure centre on Sunday the 5th March, the 60 mile route will take cyclists towards the village of Orton before heading north to Appleby in Westmorland. The ride continues through the lanes of Dufton, Milburn and Langwathby before looping back to Penrith.
Starting between 8.00am and 10.30am, the sportive is expected to take anything between three and seven hours. Registration will be open from 7.00am with a maximum of 20 riders starting every two minutes. Places are limited to around 800 and entry is on a first come, first served basis.
On the day, all participants will be electronically timed and riders will be able to take home their own professional photo of themselves in action.
“The Eden Valley Epic is a fantastic event that can be enjoyed by serious cyclists as well as those who do it just for fun”, said Derrick Smethurst, head of Russell and Russell’s personal injury department.
