About the Event

Kick off your cycling season with a scenic tour of the West Country at the Somerset 100 Sportive on Saturday, 25th April 2026, starting and finishing at the historic Wincanton Racecourse. Offering three beautifully crafted routes—a challenging 162km long ride, a classic 101km medium option, or a shorter 45km introduction—the event showcases the stunning and varied landscapes of the Somerset Levels and Mendip Hills. Each route is designed to be as flat and rolling as possible, saving the iconic and rewarding ascent of Cheddar Gorge for a memorable finale on the medium and long courses. As a fully supported event with signed routes, multiple feed stations, mechanical and medical backup, and electronic timing, you can focus purely on enjoying the ride and the famous West Country camaraderie. Your entry includes a route-specific finisher's medal, free event photos, and the satisfaction of conquering one of the UK's most picturesque early-season sportives. Whether you're building base miles or testing your legs on the legendary Gorge climb, the 2026 edition promises a fantastic, well-organized day on the bike in the heart of the English countryside.
