This years 2016 Halesowen 100 Sportive will again include a 50km  route to complement the 100km route,

The shorter route has been planned to encourage riders who may be entering  their first sportive and will give them the opportunity of riding the 31.2 mile course through several North Worcestershire villages before arriving back at the HACC track to complete the route.

This years 100km course sees a new route leaving HACC in the direction of Hagley and going on to register an elevation gain of 4,350 feet over its 64.7 mile route.

Both courses will again start with a lap of the clubs cycle track before  setting off towards the Worcestershire countryside where the 100km route will head towards Hagley and beyond whilst the 50km route  climbs up towards Romsley and the Clent Hills before descending towards Broome and the Worcestershire countryside.

Both courses will again follow undulating routes through various  villages in the North Worcestershire area before joining eachother for  the last 17miles, culminating in a final descent to the club house and finish, where refreshments, bar and  showers will all be available to the riders after completeing the fully signed  routes.

Last years event saw in excess of £1000 raised for the chosen 2015 charity, Well of Life Charity appeal, this year we hope to raise even  more for our chosen charity and welcome you to help achieve this whilst enjoying  the 2016 event.
