About the Event

Info for Riders

For those new to cycling and unsure what a Reliability Trial is, it is a traditional early season challenge, a hard training ride.  They are not sportives (or races), so no route markers (GPX files will be available), no feed stops and no results.  You set off in a bunch and make your way round as best you can (you need to make sure you are able to cope with mechanicals, punctures etc).

PLEASE NOTE: There will be a new 30 Mile Route and there will be an Off-Road Route.  

If you are planning to ride a sportive, a cycling challenge, charity ride or race in 2025 or just want to get fitter and improve your cycling then Reliability Trials are a great way to kick start the new year training.
