Two Ton Tour 2021 (Cancelled)

Cycle Sportive , Ludlow – Saturday, 10 Jul 2021

Event Summary

This event has been cancelled

Event Overview

"Best sportive I've done. Very well organised. Lovely scenery. A real challenge"

"Tougher than the Fred Whitton"

"An experience never to forget and a challenge that begs to be repeated..."

"One of the best weekends on a bike for a long, long time"

"The most epic weekend of cycling!........Had the best time and will absolutely be back!

Just some of the rider feedback from the event over the last few years........so what's stopping you? In 2020 the Two Ton Tour was sadly cancelled due to COVID but for 2021 it returns once again (we hope), with first class support from our event partners Ludlow Brewing Co. and Aberystwyth University.

This is no ordinary event and not for the faint hearted - a two day cycle tour from the quiet Shropshire lanes, over the Cambrian mountains and down to the seaside town of Aberystwyth.....and back again!

Head to the event website and facebook page to check out some great video footage and images from the event.

Two beautiful days of riding, through stunning countryside and terrain, but don't be fooled, it's tougher than it looks - are you and your legs ready take up the challenge?

THE ROUTE 

This is what it's all about......two mega-tough days of approximately 100 miles each day. The 2021 will take the best elements of the routes used over the last few years, and hopefully introduce a few new sections. Expect the usual mix of wild scenery and quiet roads with stunning backdrops......see our event website for more information about the route as we develop and finalise the final details.

THE LOGISTICS 

There is ample, free parking at the HQ for you to be able to leave your cars there for the weekend. At registration we will collect your overnight bag which we will transport to the accommodation at the University of Aberystwyth. 

On arrival, we will swap your bike for your bag and store until you set off again the next day. Accommodation at the university is in individual rooms with a shared bathroom for each corridor. Bedding and towels are provided. 

We will provide a hot buffet style evening meal and breakfast which is in a dining hall adjacent to the rooms - good for tired legs! In the morning, hand in your bag, collect your bike and do it all again. On arrival back at Ludlow Brewery there will be food provided and a well deserved drink!

See the event website for more details and FAQs.
