The Event





The 3 regions of South East England: Surrey Sussex, Kent and South East London, will be organizing Tandem 2010 based at Ringmer, East Sussex.

Our rally will be based at Ringmer Community College.

Ringmer, nestling just to the north of the South Downs, provides a variety of cycle routes, both flattish and hilly. Lewes is 3 miles away, whilst Newhaven and Brighton are 10 miles and 20 miles respectively. Wilmington, with its famous Long Man carved into the Downs, is 10 miles away and Cuckmere Haven, at the start of the Seven Sisters, is 14 miles away. The Seven Sisters form part of the chalk cliffs on the Sussex Heritage Coast, one of Britain's finest unspoilt coastlines.





Rides and Activities:

There will be a short ride available on the first Saturday of the rally, followed by a "Welcome Evening". Rides have been planned for all days from Sunday to Friday, except Wednesday (which will be a "free day" to cycle or not as you choose). There will be a choice of routes of varying lengths (approximately 30, 45 and 60 miles). The Velocio (treasure hunt style) trophy will be incorporated into one of the day's rides (with optional free entry).
