Event Summary

Event Overview

So by now you've likely ridden with us before... so you get it. Our classic season opener, 'OMLOOP' is a circular route of approx 120k (or an optional shorter 80k) taking in the quite lanes and back roads of the Somerset levels and ripple ridges of the Sedgemoor region, so in true classics countryside and parcour.
