THE Round Norfolk Epic SPORTIVE
The Round Norfolk Epic - 200 miles in one day is back for it's 2nd year... and we can't wait! The 2018 edition sold out fast and with the interest we have already had we except the 2019 event to sell just as quickly.
Starting and finishing at Great Yarmouth Racecourse.
The route heads south along the Golden Mile and out of Great Yarmouth before swinging south westerly towards Beccles. You will be heading west, riding along the southern border of Norfolk, through the fens and onto King's Lynn. From there you will be on the coast road riding beside the beautiful coast line of North Norfolk and heading back to the Finish at Great Yarmouth.
The course is 200 miles over one day. It really is a great challenge. A truly epic ride.
This event is limited to 250 spaces and we expect it to sell out fast so please book up early.
After the event there will be hot food caterers and friends and family are invited to help you celebrate your epic ride.
The medals are going to be fantastic and will be even better than last year. The design team are on it! Once we have a proof we will announce it.
Feed zones
There will be 4 feed-zones around the course at approx. 40 to 45 miles apart. There will be a main lunch stop at Welney where there will be sandwiches / rolls or similar. The other feed-zones will consist of Energy drink, water, squash, Energy snacks and other savoury snacks.
Bag Drop
On event day you will be issued a Norfolk Cycling Events musette / draw string bag. This will serve as your change of clothing bag and nutrition bag. You can fill this bag with whatever you want. It will be taken to the 2nd feed-zone at Welney and once all riders have passed through will be taken back to Gt. Yarmouth ready for collection.
Finish:
On arrival at the finish you will be awarded your bespoke premium medal and a Round Norfolk Epic t-shirt. There will be a chance to pose for a celebratory photo and we will also have music and a selection of caterers on site providing food.
Cut off:
Due to the nature of this event, there will be a cut off at each feed station. This will be based on a average speed of 12mph and will include your stops to ensure everyone one finishes by dusk.
Medals
This will be a truly epic and you will want to show it off!! As soon as we have a proof of the design we will get them online. Trust us you won't be disappointed!
Ride For Charity:
For 2019 we have donated 10 spaces per event (5 each for the Round Norfolk Epic's) The spaces are free to ride. To get one of these free spaces all you have to do is raise money for Break.

Thanks for organising such an amazing event, it ran so well, the food stops were top notch and the 200 mile course was fab. We will be back to beat our 11 hours and 7 minute time.
Cheers

Just completed the two day round Norfolk 200.
A big thank you to the team who put on an absolutely awesome and faultless event.
Communication, mapping, feed stations, massage, signage were all 100%
Well done and thank you. See you again without doubt. Best organised ride I have done and met a fantastic group of riders during the two days🖒🖒
Medal and tee shirt were great quality too btw!!

Dear Matt and Louise, many thanks for sending the photos through, unfortunately myself and my husband couldn’t finish the event as on the Saturday in the fens I became ill with what I think was the start of heat illness. I hadn’t got enough fluid in and the rest as they say is history. Up until that point it was a great event well organised, friendly people and a great route. I would love to think that you will do this again next year as i am now determined to finish it. I await further emails from you. Kind Regards Suzanne

Just want to Say a massive well done to the NCE and all the staff and helpers for looking after us on Sunday for the 1 day 200 mile epic. It was a HOT challenging day but was very well organised, and a huge thankyou to the person who handed in my front wheel which I left leaning up against my car and drove off (duh) will be collecting it when I come back in August for the 150 miler. I love the Norfolk events and the great friendly people. Thank you: Shaun

Absolutely top event, a big thanks to all you organisers, volunteers at the race course and the feed zones. Also, as the Lanterne Rouge, a great thanks to the broom wagon driver who sat behind me for a few miles - would have been easy to throw in the towel, really glad I resisted! Jim
