Equinox Omniloop

Immerse yourself in the cosmic rhythm of spring during the Equinox OmniLoop, an innovative 24-hour cycling adventure that challenges both your physical limits and perception of time. Nestled within the picturesque Cotswolds region of England, this unique event invites participants to navigate three distinct loops, each symbolizing a different cycle in our universe.
The short loop offers smooth, flat terrain akin to Earth’s daily rotation, providing an initial warm-up for riders before they tackle more challenging courses. The medium loop features longer stretches with varying elevation changes, mirroring the annual orbit of our planet around the sun. Finally, the longest and most demanding route represents the vast journey of our solar system through the galaxy, testing cyclists’ endurance to their core.
Participants accumulate points based on completing each loop; one point for the short course, additional increments awarded for tackling the more difficult paths. Riders have complete control over when they attempt these loops throughout the 24-hour period, allowing them to strategize according to daylight conditions and personal stamina levels.
This event is set against the backdrop of the Spring Equinox, a moment in time where day and night are perfectly balanced, symbolizing nature’s transition from winter into spring. The Cotswolds’ rolling hills and charming villages provide an idyllic setting for this dynamic challenge, blending fast stretches with grueling climbs to celebrate both cosmic rhythms and human endurance.
Beyond the physical demands of cycling, the Equinox OmniLoop encourages riders to reflect on their relationship with time and movement in a profound way. Will you emerge victorious from these loops or succumb to the relentless passage of hours?
Participants will find all necessary support at hand, including fully risk-assessed routes provided via GPX files for navigation assistance. A GPS tracker hire service is also available alongside bag drop facilities, changing rooms equipped with showers, and access to event photography.
All riders must adhere strictly to safety guidelines: maintaining self-sufficiency on the course, respecting route boundaries without leaving traces behind or drafting unfairly unless explicitly paired up as a tandem team entry. Cyclists are required to carry essential items such as mobile phones, high-visibility gear, emergency blankets, and bike lights at all times while abiding by local traffic laws.
Join us in this extraordinary journey through the Cotswolds where every pedal stroke connects you deeper with both nature’s cycles and your own capabilities.
Experience the Equinox OmniLoop – more than just a race, it's an exploration of time itself.
