The New Forest Rattler
Congratulations to all those that took part in the New Forest Rattler 2011 - results and photo's from the event are available here.

The New Forest Rattler will take place on 19 August 2012; it is a cyclosportive set against the stunning backdrop of the New Forest National Park. You can choose from one of two routes: a shorter route of 47 miles or a more demanding 78 mile course joining a peleton of 1,000 riders.

Each route provides fantastic cycling terrain with long sweeping flat sections and some punchy hills including the famous Blissford Hill - a 25% gradient!

Both routes take in the spectacular scenery that the New Forest has to offer. You will encounter ancient Redwoods when passing through Ornamental Drive, wild animals grazing at the roadside and picturesque villages and hamlets.
