Close your cycling event season with RIDE Essex, a stunning cycle through the Essex countryside. Our RIDE Essex charity cycling sportive is one of our most popular rides attracting over 500 participants. You can enjoy some excellent cycling terrain on this bike ride raising funds for vital research for sick babies and children. Three route options take you on a journey through quiet villages and the farmlands of Essex where the undulations will have you in and out of the saddle.
Historic Writtle University College is the venue that offers beautiful quaint gardens for your friends and family to enjoy while they wait to cheer you over the finish line.
RIDE Essex offers a Cool 36-mile route that is ideal if you’re new to cycling or haven’t had time to train! The Classic 64-mile route is more challenging as is the Champion at 100 miles - ideal if you’re an experienced sportive rider.
Plus, this year, for the very first time we've introduced a brand-new, 58-mile Gravel route, with 16 off-road sectors, marking an exciting new development for the charity whilst offering something for everyone!
Expect a great day in the saddle with the Action Medical Research team on this cycling event with first-class support throughout the day.
