Cherry losing sportive

fungus_the_muffin_man

I've been riding now for about 6 weeks, doing 20-30 mile rides with some hills involved though nothing to sever I don't think, but enough to get me working hard. I would like to start having a look at doing a sportive. Does anyone have any ideas on any appropriate ones to do to start me off? I'm expecting to up my mileage to 50mile round trips over the next few weeks.

oh I live in the Manchester area and don't mind a bit of a travel if need be.

Thanks

Manchester 100 or 100km would be a good one - sept 6th IIRC. Starts wythenshawe park.

lots of sportives to be found on here: www.cyclosport.org how about:

Thanks for the info on the Manchester 100.

Could be the first one for me!
