Another event we would recommend.
It’s perhaps a bit of a journey to get there – drive and ferry – but a great welcome at the host town and an excellent sportive. Good roads and scenery round the Island, with 3 well stocked food stops (with a 20 min allowance for each that was ideal). About 500 riders, with majority of a similar standard to us doing the 100 mile route.
We stayed just outside Castletown in a fairly basic but good hotel, a couple days cycling and 3 evenings in the town or Douglas. Probably all in cost of £350 (hotel, ferry, fuel, food etc).
Perhaps one that the club attends next year if anyone is interested – not one for anyone who hates hills or steep gradients.
