Sportives for younger riders

richiemtb

Are there any sportives that alow youth riders to enter?
Preferably in Northern England or Scotland.
I am thirteen years old but have cycled 100+ kilometers on many occasions and decided that i wanted to try my hand at a cyclosportive.
Thanks for the help!

The updated website with online entry facility will go live on 1st Dec.07 as ash68 so rightly says. The text on the website has been updated but the online facility will appear on the 1st December along with pictures from this year and lots more.
