One of the most popular bike rides in the South East, the Castle Ride 100 attracts 1,000 riders to this must-do event. The North Downs offer some big climbs, including the mile-long climb of Hollingbourne Hill. Quiet lanes make the route through the Garden of England a real joy to ride even though this is a tough one.

With a choice of 33 miles, 69 miles or a tougher 103-mile route, you'll have a great day in the saddle while helping to fund vital medical research for sick and disabled babies and children. Whether you are an experienced rider aiming to get a fast time or a rider aiming to make a day of it and take in the sights, this ride is for you.

Expect excellent feed stations manned by friendly volunteers and a buffet style lunch mid-way through the ride that you will find hard to tear yourself away from! Riders will be supported by first class medical support, mechanical services and a sweep vehicle.

Many riders who experience a RIDE 100 event enjoy the social atmosphere so much they return to take part in another one of our challenges. Make 2013 the year that you take part in a RIDE 100 sportive – you won’t be disappointed!
