Story
Be ready to complete the Tour de Foxes Cycle Challenge taking in the stunning scenery around the Leicestershire Cricket Community. This route of approximately 80 miles takes in a minimum of 11 cricket clubs and includes stops along the way to allow for comfort breaks and refreshments.
This is sure to be fun and have a brilliant social feel while providing an excellent level of challenge. As this is a charity event, all riders are expected to raise monies for the Leicestershire CCC Foundation. The day will be brilliantly rounded off with the opportunity to watch the Vitality Blast T20 fixture at the Uptonsteel County Ground against Worcestershire Rapids.
The ride leaves from the Uptonsteel County Ground in the morning, heading south east before navigating along the country roads northwards in the direction of Melton Mowbray. The route takes the riders through the Soar Valley area, before heading north west and returning to the Upton Steel County Ground via the western areas of Charnwood before travelling through parts of Hinckley & Bosworth & Blaby Districts.
