About the Event

Info for Riders

Nino’s Granfondo is relatively short sportive, in distance terms, but don’t be fooled. It is very hilly and challenging for even the fittest riders. Taking in many (in)famous local climbs in and around the Pennine Hills of Lancashire and West Yorkshire. The route is just over 60 miles with over 2000m of climbing. There is also a shorter route at 40 miles long for those who don't want to tackle the final few grueling climbs.
