Etape Du Norfolk
2nd Big Summer Sportive .
Etape Du Norfolk – " A New Chapter Begins”
Étape Du Norfolk marks the next chapter in our cycling story.
Following the success of The Norfolk Sportive, which brought thousands of riders together over the years, this brand new event has been created to build on that legacy — and take it to the next level.
Inspired by the great European sportives and shaped by everything we learned from running The Norfolk Sportive, Étape Du Norfolk delivers a beautifully crafted route, exceptional organisation and a rider experience designed to feel seamless from start to finish.
This isn’t just a new event.
It’s the evolution of a proven classic.
.
Why the Etape Du Norfolk
Étape Du Norfolk is all about space, flow and atmosphere.
Think big open skies, quiet roads stretching into the distance, gently rolling terrain and wide, sweeping views across some of the most beautiful countryside in the county.
This is a ride that invites you to settle into a rhythm — long smooth sections, natural undulations and landscapes that make you forget you’re clock-watching.
But it’s not just about the roads.
It’s about riding alongside new friends, sharing miles with like-minded people, and being part of a community brought together by a love of cycling and great days out on the bike.
Whether you arrive with a group or set off solo, you’ll finish with stories, smiles and a sense that you’ve been part of something more than just a ride.
