We promise to make the Saddleback Sodbury Sportive a first class sportive. All the organisers and helpers of the Saddleback Sodbury sportive are volunteers.  By entering not only will you be part of one of the best sportives in the UK but you will also be helping us raise money for charity with 100% of the profits donated to good causes.

The event starts just a couple of miles from the HQ of Saddleback, the exclusive importer of top high performance brands like Castelli, Felt, Enve and Bont.  We are very grateful for the involvement of Saddleback who also help with the famous Fred Whitton Challenge.

Last year's event was a great success, thanks to you the riders for making it possible and all the feedback

We want to make the Saddleback Sodbury Sportive even better than previous years so please enter and spread the word to everyone interested in cycling.  Like our facebook page to keep up to date and help tell your friends 

The Saddleback Sodbury Sportive is must do sportive for all levels of cyclists.  Some wonderful countryside, quiet lanes and beautiful views are there to be enjoyed.  


A choice of 3 distances (100 miles, 60 miles or 30 miles) will take riders along well signed (over 700 signs) and marshalled routes. Mechanical support at the start and along the route will be provided as well as a broom wagon to collect struggling riders.

Feed Stations along the route promise to refresh riders with a generous selection of homemade food combining the essential with some treats for those with a little more time to spare.  Feed Stations will also have a track pump and inner tubes in case you need to get your tyre back to full pressure or top up on spare tubes. 

 

Returning to Chipping Sodbury there will be free hot food, massages from the experts at the Toll House Clinic and time to relax with a drink from the bar 

Organised by the Members and Friends of the Rotary club of Chipping Sodbury, the aim is to provide a sportive experience that is equal to the best sportives in the UK while all profits from the event will be given to charity. 

A huge thanks to all the riders and helpers from 2013 in which the event raised
