Event overview
Take in the breathtaking glens and Munros of the Trossachs National Park on this British Cycling-approved event. Join the Pedal Stirling Sportive and raise money to help people with Parkinson's get active and stay active.
There are three different distance options with all routes fully signed, and all starting and finishing in the same location. You will enjoy lots of steep climbs and fast descents whilst riding on the roads used for the 2023 Cycling World Championships.
25 miles is the gentlest route.
Ideal for anyone looking to enjoy a bike ride in stunning countryside surroundings.
50 miles is the intermediate route.
The route explores Flanders Moss, passing the Lake of Menteith into Fintry before ascending to the Carron Valley Reservoir.
100 miles is the most demanding route.
Challenge yourself by taking on the Dukes Pass, the infamous Crow Road and climbing out of Lennoxtown.

I’ve taken part in Pedal for Parkinson’s for the last five years. I cycle because my husband has Parkinson’s. I want to help find a cure and improve the lives of everyone affected by the condition. Deirdre Duncan, Pedal for Parkinson's Ambassador
Not only does this event bring together people with a connection to Parkinson’s, it also brings together a community that loves cycling. Dave Usherwood
I would encourage anyone of all cycling abilities to take part. It’s so well organised, there’s a route for everyone, and it's a great way to support and help make a difference. I feel very privileged to be a part of such a great charity event. Looking forward to cycling with team Parkinson’s in 2025. Susan, Pedal participant
