YORKSHIRE’S PREMIER SPORTIVE
Come and join us on Sunday 6th July 2025 for another epic adventure of the “White Rose Classic” in the cycle mecca that is Yorkshire. (Gods own back yard!)
For 2025 we are introducing a 4th route which will be the shortest route on offer and will complement the existing 3 routes, the new route aims to attract those riders who just want a leisurely ride out in to the dales and enjoy a post ride drink in the event village. The 4 routes vary from 36 miles to 124 miles which will take you in to the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. As you weave yourself around the Yorkshire dales through various lumps, bumps and an odd climb or two, you’ll enjoy the beautiful scenery that the Yorkshire Dales has to offer and gain an insight to why the Yorkshire Dales is a cycling mecca. You’ll been riding on roads made famous by the Tour de France in 2014, the Tour de Yorkshire and the UCI world championships in 2019, before finishing your route at our HQ.
Once finished you can relax in the post ride village, chat with your fellow riders over a drink, have some food and enjoy the hospitality the event is renowned for, friends and family are welcome to join you in the post ride village.
