The Smuggler Cycle Sportive | 100 Mile

With 3 routes on offer in 2024 at The Smuggler we have devised a start window for each ride, this is aiming to ensure all riders finish within a certain time span – both for safety and so you get back to enjoy some well earnt food! The routes are challenging rides, with plenty of climbing to give those legs a test –  North Devon doesn’t have much flat tarmac we’re afraid to say. It makes up for it with it’s beauty though. Take your time, soak in the views, enjoy the food at the feed stations (eat every hour as a rule of thumb) and drink regularly. Keeping well fuelled is absolutely the key to keeping those legs turning and maintaining energy levels – no gas, no engine. We will be starting you in waves of riders, with a 5min gap in between. There will be a full safety briefing at the start line. Please listen carefully.
