Britain's What's On Event Guide
Leicestershire Round Bike Ride 2026
We’re excited to bring back our 100 mile bike ride all the way around the glorious countryside of Leicestershire – and this year, if you’re not quite up for the full distance there is a new 50 mile option.
Take in stunning views, local landmarks and sample delicious local produce along the way. This event is a true celebration of Leicestershire! See the very best of what our stunning county has to offer, taste some of the best local delicacies and enjoy a beautiful day out in the countryside.
Many cyclists choose to take on the challenge with family, friends, colleagues, club members, or ride in memory of someone special.

Tackle the ultimate 100 mile route
With approximately 4,500ft / 1300m of elevation, this longer and hillier course is ideal for experienced cyclists, anyone training for bigger events, stepping up from shorter distances, or ticking off a bucket list achievement.
Join the new shorter 50 mile route
Still a challenging ride with around 500m of climb, but more achievable for those with fewer miles under their belt. A scenic, point to point ride on the second half our Leicestershire Round route – covering half the distance for those who aren’t quite up to doing 100 miles or those who simply want a little less time in the saddle.
