Macmillan Dorset Bike Ride

In 2012 we are pleased to offer 5 circular routes .

The 10 mile ride is ideal for the young and not so young. This ride consists of a mixture of country lanes, cycle paths and local roads, there are just a couple of right turns which can be taken with care.

There will be no 20 mile ride this year however there is an option to cycle the 10 mile ride twice if you wish.

The 38 mile ride follows the Stour Valley to Blandford and then the Winterborne Valley to the refreshment stop at Winterborne Kingston.

The 48 mile ride also follows the Stour Valley to Blandford and then takes cyclists to Bulbarrow and Milton Abbas before rejoining the 38 mile ride in Winterborne Whitechurch.

The 60 mile ride follows the route of the 48 mile ride but includes the Dewlish/Cheselbourne loop for refreshments in Cheselbourne.

The Macmillan Dorset 100 ride has been improved just slightly for 2012. The ride goes further north west along quiet lanes to: Wimborne, Blandford, Oakford Fitzpaine, Hazelbury Bryan, Holwell, Glanvillies Wooton, Mapowder, Ansty, Milton Abbas, Winterborne Valley, Bulbarrow, Dewlish, Cheselbourne then back to Ansty and Milton Abbas. The route then joins the other longer rides at Winterborne Whitechurch for the same route back to the finish via Winterborne Kingston, Anderson, Bloxworth, Morden and Lytchett Matravers. Please note this ride is for the serious cyclist and fund raiser, we do expect cyclists to contribute over £100 each when taking part in this ride.
