The Cotswolds 100 Sportive – Now in Its 7th Year!
Starting and finishing near Cheltenham, this scenic ride takes you through some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
Designed as a relaxed, enjoyable day in the saddle rather than a punishing challenge, this sportive is all about celebrating the joy of cycling in one of the UK’s most beautiful regions. Whether you’re riding solo or with friends, it’s the perfect opportunity to soak up the scenery and simply enjoy being on the bike.
Choose from two route options:
🚴♂️ Long Route – 166 km (101 miles)
🚴 Medium Route – 104 km (64 miles)
Whichever you go for, you're guaranteed an unforgettable ride—and a great way to tick off that coveted “100” on your cycling palmarès, whether you're counting in miles or kilometres.
Start your 2026 season with a truly rewarding experience. With a friendly, inclusive atmosphere, this is a sportive that welcomes cyclists of all abilities and celebrates great riding in great company.
