We have route options to suit all riders which showcase the best cycling the Vale of Evesham has to offer.

• 3 sportive routes – from £20
• 18 mile leisure ride – from £5
• Children’s ride – £2 (entry on the day only)

ENTRIES OPENING SOON!

Those of you who have ridden on a social ride with us in the last year would have more than likely met Wayne Evans.

Sadly, Wayne passed away recently and as a group we will certainly miss his ever present smile and encouragement to make it up that last hill that always seems to appear at the end of every ride.

With the blessings of his family, we are honoured to remember him by naming our Evesham Cyclefest 2019 King and Queen of the Hill Trophies after him.

Less than 2 weeks to go for Evesham Cyclefest!

Make sure your bike is in great working order ahead the Evesham Cyclefest by coming along to our bike check evening at Evesham Adventure Playground this Saturday 31st August 2019 and then enjoy a screening of the film “Inspired to Ride” about the first Transamerica Race.

Bicycle checks are happening between 5pm and 7.30pm.
Film showing is between 7.30pm and 9pm.

“INSPIRED TO RIDE” follows a handful of cyclists as they race unsupported in the inaugural year of The Trans Am Bike Race. It’s the antithesis to events like Tour de France and Race Across America. There are no teams, no support vehicles, no special jerseys and not a dime in prize money. 4233 Miles. 10 States. Coast To Coast. Self-Supported.
As they battle lack of sleep, injuries and spirited competition, “INSPIRED TO RIDE” takes you on an invigorating road trip — amidst the jaw-dropping beauty of the TransAmerica Trail with its varied landscapes, intriguing locals and found stories which dot this path of discovery.
Featuring Mike Hall and Juliana Buhring plus many more “crazies”.

There is a suggested donation of £5 to Evesham Adventure Playground, our chosen charity for Evesham Cyclefest, for the bike check and/or film.
The address of Evesham Adventure Playground is:
Woodlands
Evesham
WR11 1XH

You can sign up to the Facebook event here.

We would love to see you there!

In keeping with the theme of this year’s Evesham carnival a group of 14 of our members dressed up as chimney sweeps and even two Mary Poppins!

It was great to be able to show off our “More bums on bikes” banners to the packed streets.

We are delighted to have been awarded 3rd place in the Non-Motorised Float category.
