This is for all you cycling nuts out there (and of course all you wannabe cycling nuts)! If you can imagine nothing better than hopping on your bike and cycling round the countryside all day — whether that’s on tarmac or crazy ass trails — then this competition is for you.
Outdoor Chics has joined forces with Cycleplan, the UK’s leading specialist cycle insurer, to offer two lucky people the chance to win a pair of tickets to one of Cycling Weekly‘s 2016 Sportive Series or Adventure Cross 2016 Series events.
There are currently eight road sportives and four adventure cross events remaining across a number of UK locations right up until October. From epic rides for seasoned cyclists to shorter courses, perfect for newbies and leisure cyclists, the events all offer a good choice of routes. And with each course being planned and manned by UK Cycling Events, you’ll really be in safe hands.

Hey Margaux,
I’d love to do the race on the 15th May — South Downs Spring, East Sussex. I’ve never done a bike race before – love the area and think this would be a great one to start on!
Thanks
Joey

I’d love to do the Box Hill Original in Surrey. I’m tackling those hills as part of RideLondon in July, so this would be another chance to get up them if I don’t manage it the first time! Haha
Margaux says
Hi Beki, thanks for your entry I like your determination and wish you all the best!
