Tickets have been snapped up so quickly for the Wiggle Super Series New Forest 100 Sportive, that an extra road bike sportive has now been scheduled. All 1,200 places for the New Forest 100 Sportive – due to take place on Sunday, October 2nd, from Brockenhurst, Hampshire – were sold in record time so organisers UK Cycling Events have added the ‘Saturday New Forest 100 Sportive’ to the popular calendar of events.

The bonus sportive will be held on Saturday, October 1st, and will have 500 spaces. It will boast all the same features as Sunday’s event and riders will be able to cover either the 100-mile Epic route, 66-mile Standard route or the 44-mile Fun route on their bikes. All routes will weave their way through the beautiful New Forest National Park where the breathtaking scenery and quiet forest roads make for perfect road bike riding.

Riders can look forward to all the luxuries which they have come to associate with the Wiggle Super Series events including well stocked feed stations, disposable chip timing, mechanical support, massages, bike wash facilities, a finisher’s medal, well marked courses and a goody bag worth more than £10.

If riders book before midnight on Sunday, 4th Sept, they will also receive a free High5 nutrition pack worth £12.

Organiser Martin Barden, of UK Cycling Events, said:

“We were delighted when the New Forest 100 Sportive sold out in record time. When more and more road bike riders kept requesting places, adding another event on the Saturday seemed like the perfect solution. We did a similar ‘Saturday’ sportive in April when our Spring Sportive sold out early. It was very well received by the riders who missed out but were keen to ride.”

With high demand, limited spaces and a Free High 5 Pack for riders booking before Sunday 4th of September, to book this hottest sportive ticket visit the UK Cycling Events website.

Wiggle Super Series Events

Wiggle Super Series events are designed to meet the requirements of each participant. With 2 or 3 routes to choose from, cyclists can opt for either a favoured distance or a new challenge – followed by a battle against the clock to be awarded a Bronze, Silver or Gold time.

Attracting both experienced riders and newer faces to the racing circuit, Wiggle Super Series events aim to encourage everybody to get out and ride – that’s why children can ride for free when they attend with a paying adult! To make it fuss-free, each event has feed stations, toilet facilities, and an easy-to-follow course.

Challenging yet fun, social yet competitive – all you have to do is turn up and ride!
