9 June 2024 – The Raptor – Forest of Bowland 63 mile Sportive

82Days 14Hours 01Minutes 07Seconds

The Raptor sportive starts and finishes on the outskirts of Lancaster, and is a great ride that explores the many miles of remote cycling country in and around the nearby area of Bowland. 

Quiet roads and lanes throughout – along with breath taking scenery and challenging ascents that local riders relish. 

Ride to the very center of the British isles (the phone box on Dunsop Bridge’s village green) as well as experiencing some of the roads that Sir Bradley Wiggins used to get ready for the 2012 Tour de France and Olympic games !  


“great day thank you, fantastic scenery, lovely friendly marshals and great food stop. really well organised event.”
