The Sportive Calendar

If you decide to enter a ride and you’d like some company, please tell me and I’ll add your name to the list of riders who’ve entered. I’ll also let all the other riders who’ve entered know, so you can agree to meet up/share transport etc, if you wish.

The Sportive Cup

For the first time, The Glendene Cycling Club is offering a Sportive Cup.

To get your hands on this fine silverware, you will need to ride more sportive miles between 24 January and the date of Glendene's 2010 AGM than any other Glendene Sportive Rider.

A "Sportive" for these purposes is any pay to enter ride that isn't a race. It includes a traditional sportive, but it also includes audax, reliability trial, Grand Fondo and other sportive-like rides, whether they take place in the UK, Europe, the Americas or elsewhere. (All of the rides on the Glendene Sportive Table (published on our website) qualify. Off-road miles do not.)

To have your miles counted, you need to send me independent evidence of your ride. Proof could include a (hard or soft) copy of a completion certificate, a link to the organiser's website which confirms that you completed the ride and how many miles you rode; but other independent evidence may also be accepted. Your miles won't count if you don't provide independent evidence (and they won't count if you abandon the ride before the end).

We will publish a table on the Glendene Website Sportive Cup miles or by e-mail at the beginning of every month between now and the 2010 AGM, which shows how many sportive miles have been logged by who, and who's leading the race for the Sportive Cup.

Good luck!

May the best Glendene Sportive Rider win.
