Are you a keen cyclist looking to take on a new challenge in 2023 then we may have just the event for you?

The inaugural Moor to Sea Sportive will give you the option to take on one of three routes in aid of The Primrose Foundation, they are:

• The Inspire Route aka The short one. This is a perfect introduction to Sportive cycling. Starting from Exeter Racecourse this route covers 34 miles and has nearly 2,400 feet of climbing. Most of the route are reasonably flat. But there's a sting in the tale at 32 miles where you start the long and in places steep climb back up to the finish line.

• The Challenge Route aka The medium one. This option has always proved to be the most popular option of the three routes. Starting from Exeter Racecourse this route covers a distance of 64 miles and has nearly 6,000 feet of climbing.

• The Extreme Route aka The long one. This one is the toughest of the three route options for the Moor to Sea Sportive.

It includes a stunning coast road section and iconic climbs such as Haytor, Poundsgate and Doccombe.
