Circuit Of The Cotswolds It's not a race but a 100 mile epic ride around the Cotswolds and everyone is welcome. The format will be familiar to any of your club members who have ridden in popular rides in the north of the country like the Fred Whitton Challenge or the Polka Dot Challenge. This ride covers some of the climbs from the classic Tour of the Cotswolds road race and is on hard terrain so will be excellent training for summer racing or Etape du Tour training two weeks later. There's fantastic scenery and quiet lanes too so if anybody wants to take it easy instead, that's fine too. Info: http://www.circuitofthecotswolds.org for details and entry form Date: Sunday 26 June, start 8 to 9am Course: 100 mile signposted circular route / 2,200 metres climbing Venue: Start/finish Yarnton Village Hall near Oxford Cost: Ten pounds; food and drink provided at two feed stations, all profits to charity.
