EVENTS:
Our events are open to all ages and abilities, they vary in terms of difficulty. Cycling UK members are automatically insured for the events and rides. The Audax type events will require a £3 temp membership levy to cover insurance if you do not have CUK or AUK membership, and some of the less formal events may just require you to complete a guest form.
Most events now supply a GPX route for those people who like to use navigation devices, Garmin/ Wahoo etc. Route sheets and mapping information are also provided. The events a level of self-support so will not have marshals or direction arrows like Sportives do.
   

Devon Delight 100Km:
The Devon Delight is a 100Km leisure ride, run at a fairly easy pace under the regulations of Audax United Kingdom. Similar to a Sportive but withe out timings and standards, the idea is to complete within a certain time limit.
Riders have to compl;ete a set route, and go through certain check point which may be manned , or just information gathering. the Delight is popular, running for well over 25 years and with a Devon cream tea at the finish made and served by our team of volunteers,

Dartmoor Ghost:
The Dartmoor Ghost is something a bit different! The idea is to complete this 145Km Randonee overnight, visiting the haunted sites of the moors as you go. Another ride under Audax UK regs. you need to finish back at Bovey Tracey within a set time limit, where you are treated to a slap-up fried breakfast.

Devon Dirt:

The Devon Dirt is South Devon CTC's annual off-road event. A mixture of lanes, bridleways, green roads and tracks make up around a 50Km course based at Ashburton.
There is no time limit for the event, the aim being purely to arrive at the finish having completed the course safely with yourself and your bicycle still intact!
Refreshments are provided part way around the course, and at the finish, and there is usually a bit of mechanical support available.

Shore to Moor 200Km.

 

The Shore to Moor ( previously Torplex 200 ) event is a 200Km randonee, usually run on the same day as the Devon Delight, and follows a similar route as far as the Stoke Canon control. the route then heads into middle Devon, and over to West Devon around Lydfor and Brentor, before a Moorland ascent past the Warren House Inn, and then a downhill finish to Newton Abbot.
Cafe's and controls are quite sparse in the mid and west Devon areas, so the need to self support is important.
A cream tea awaits the finishers.
