This regular fixture has become a bit of a classic for those looking for cycling that offers both beauty and the beast! Another from the Team Action stable that guarantees you the perfect sportive or short distance challenge
New for the 2014 Trossachs Ton is the Double Duke; two ascents of the Dukes Pass on the Champion route! With revised routes this charity cycling sportive just got a whole lot better and will offer riders old and new a fresh cycling challenge.
This is one of the best ride outs in Scotland in an area of outstanding beauty with mountains and forests, making this bike ride such a pleasure despite the hills!
Starting and finishing in Stirling there are three distances on offer;
Cool 34 mile route - ideal if you’re new to cycling
Classic 75 mile route - more challenging with Crow Road and a single Duke
Champion at 106 miles is ideal if you’re up for the big challenge
As well having a great day in the saddle you will be riding for a reason and raising funds to help sick and disabled babies and children. Sportive and Fundraising pricing available.
