Gore Bikewear Road Sportive - Builth Wells (Summer)
Date: 05/07/2008
New for 2008 we are offering something for the road riders out there by adding a sportive to most of the rounds of the Merida Bikes MTB Marathon Series. Amongst the events in Ruthin, Penrith and Selkirk Builth Wells will also feature two different road sportive courses to choose from. The road sportives are run on the Saturday of the event weekend with an open start from early in the morning onwards. Following the huge trend of non-competitive road events the GORE BIKEWEAR Road Sportives are trying to set themselves apart from the rest by offering a high quality event package with outstanding courses and first class support around the course plus all inclusive camping, parking, facilities, event meal and finisher present. Pretty much the same deal the riders of the marathon series have been enjoying since the very beginning. The road sportives will have two courses on offer - an approx. 80-100mile and approx.40-50mile loop. The GORE BIKEWEAR Sportives are run very similarly to the Merida marathons by being one loop events with the start and finish being in the same location as the event village, registration and event camping. Due to legal reasons the Sportives will be started in small waves of riders at set intervals. The start will open at 8am and will stay open for approximately 2 hours to give everybody the chance to have a relaxing start at the time of their choosing.
