The sportives take place all around the Highlands of Scotland and are well established and organised events that take in some of the most stunning cycle routes in Scotland. Routes that include the stunning Bealach Na Ba (The pass of the cattle). 

The Bealach Na Ba is the UK’s biggest road climb at 2053ft (626m) from sea level in just 6mls (10k). There are also rides that take in the rugged and wild Northern Coast of Skye, or the Coigach Peninsula in Wester Ross. Why not try the climb over the shoulder of Quinag and ride below the stunning mountains of Ben Stack, Foinaven, Suilven and Canisp. You can cycle through the beautiful  wooded and historical Strathspey, ending on the challenging cycle up to the Cairngorm ski station. All these events are cycling heaven and give some of the best cycling in Scotland.  

Each event is a classic and needs to be part of your cycle sportive palmares.
