North Dorset Cycle Race
When? 14 May 2023
Where? Shaftesbury
This Rotary event raises money for the principal charity "Prostate Cancer UK" and other local charities.
We have two brand new routes that replace the 25, 50 and 75 mile routes. The very popular Family Fun Ride will also feature in the event.
MORE news is that the start will return to the beautiful PARK WALK.
Family Fun Ride
Winding around the town with fun on the way along safe side roads, our Family Fun ride is ideal for the beginner, and energetic junior cyclists. Everyone Welcome.
25 and 50 Mile rides.
The 50 and 25-mile routes partly share the 25-mile route, but the 50-mile route takes a larger loop before re-joining the 25-mile route for the ride back into Shaftesbury and the finish up Gold Hill.
