FORCE Century Cycle Challenge 2012
Topsham Rugby Club
24.06.2012
The FORCE Century Cycle Challenge will take place on Sunday 24th June 2012. This classic charity ride offers either a 55 or 100 mile cycle from Topsham Rugby Club to Tiverton and out into the Devon countryside. The 100 mile ride heads up to Dulverton and over the top of Exmoor, down to South Molton and then meets up with the 55 mile, which goes across country to Morchard Road. Both rides then come back to Topsham via Crediton and the back lanes to Exeter. Breakfast, courtesy of The Bike Shed, our lead sponsor, is offered to everyone as part of the ride from 7:15am and then the ride departs from 08:15am in batches. Refreshment stops are offered on route along with water. The Bike Shed offer superb support and advice along the route but please bear in mind what whilst their time is given in support, parts are chargeable...
