The ultimate pub ride, the Ride with No Name may be the biggest 30km ride you’ll take on this year! The ultimate early evening ride, starting and finishing at one of Hampshire’s finest pubs, it features a massive 1,000m of climbing and descending in a relentless but little known pocket of hills called the Hangers.This is a short ride with a big punch in one of the most beautiful hidden corners of the countryside that you’ve (probably) never heard of! As if that wasn’t enough, the ride is based from (and named for) the local legend that is The Pub with No Name, one of the very best country pubs you’ll find, where you can enjoy a wide selection of excellent beers, and delicious home cooked food after your ride!

The Chiltern Hills are a near perfect mix of roads tracks and trails for CX/gravel riding, and the Badlands Gravelcross spins out it’s route to explore some of the darker, grittier folds of this deceptively demanding range of hills. The densely folded and wooded hills conceal a network of lanes, tracks and trails the wind and climb and fall continuously. It’s a surprisingly harsh corner of the home counties; where the crumbling tarmac on the back roads can prove perilous for skinny road bikes, but where CX or gravel bikes come into their own. It’s an MTB friendly ride too - 29ers and 27.5in hardtails will eat up the miles on the dirt, and the constantly switching surface provides an entertaining ride and acts as a great leveller between the variety of bikes on the route.
