Wiltshire 100 and Big Wheel

100 mile: Come along and cycle for the charity of your choice on this heroic 100 mile ride through Wiltshire! Setting off to the west the route joins the Wylye valley to coast into Wilton, the ancient capital of Wessex then on to Salisbury and its cathedral. Watch out for the optical illusion as you approach - the spire actually gets smaller the closer you get to it! Then it's up the Avon Valley through some stunning villages to the Vale of Pewsey before heading through Savernake Forest to the historic market town of Marlborough. With a final climb up over the ridgeway the route drops back into the Vale of Pewsey to the Finish. 12 and 45 miles: A choice of two exciting routes, both starting and finishing in the historic market town of Devizes. Both set off east through the Vale of Pewsey, the scenic 45 mile route heads on through Savernake Forest to the historic market town of Marlborough. Finishing off with a climb over the ridgeway and back into the Vale of Pewsey to the Finish. The 12 mile family route stays within the Vale with a stop at All Cannings for a spot of lunch.
