There's a whole lot of adrenalin coming to Dartmoor on two wheels, with the Dartmoor Brewery Sportive cycle race on Saturday 7th September 2019.
Supported by Dartmoor Brewery, this gruelling cycle event offers competitors a choice of two scenic and challenging routes - a 25 mile "Half Pint" and, not the for the faint hearted, the 52 mile "Full Pint".
The race starts from Dartmoor Brewery's Princetown HQ at 9:30am, and the finish line is at the Prince of Wales pub in Princetown, where competitors will receive a well-deserved bottle of Jail Ale to take away and enjoy later.
