Hay-on-Wye Bike Ride, Herefordshire.

Join the Cystic Fibrosis Herefordshire Branch for this annual 18 mile bike ride in the beautiful town of Hay-on-Wye. The Hay-on-Wye 18 mile bike ride is an annual family cycling event organised by our Herefordshire Branch and volunteers.

It takes place in the beautiful Brecon Beacons countryside, in the picturesque town of Hay-on-Wye. Hay is home to the Hay Festival, which attracts thousands of people to this beautiful part of the world every year.

The event isn’t a race and its ethos is to get together, raise some money for the Trust, and have a great time doing it with friends and family.

The event starts from Hay Town Clock at 9:45am and follows a circular route through Llanigon, Glasbury and Clyro and looping back to Hay-on-Wye town centre where you will be welcomed by numerous cheers from the volunteers and supporters. You will receive your cycling number to pin to your t-shirt for event safety on the morning, so please arrive with plenty of time to register on the day. There will be refreshments and medals for all competitors upon completion of the cycle.

Hereford Triathlon 2019, Leominster, Herefordshire.

Herefordshire’s traditional super sprint triathlon has been organised by Hereford Triathlon Club for more than 25 years. It’s an ideal race for beginners and people who are having a go at triathlon for the first time.

We can guarantee you a beautiful course through the Herefordshire countryside, friendly marshals, a simple well-marked route, chip timing and lots of vocal support. Every competitor will receive one of our very special medals featuring a unique design featuring a local landmark.

The race is organised by the members of Hereford Triathlon Club and we aim to make it as relaxed and friendly as possible.  Any money that we make gets used to help the club run throughout the year.

You’ll start by swimming 400 metres in the indoor pool before heading to transition next door at the Earl Mortimer College.

The 12 mile bike course is undulating but fast and you’ll head out of town and towards Bromyard on the A44, turning around at the King’s Head Pub in the village of Docklow.

Back to the school and the 3 mile run takes you around the town of Leominster including some of the historic sites before finishing at the school.

An ideal race for beginners, novices and those wanting a super fast sprint.

We’re also offering an Aqua Bike race this year for the first time. You’ll compete the swim and bike sections and your finishing time will be taken as you cross back into transition after your bike.

Entries to the race close a week before – on June 23rd – so please make sure you don’t leave it too late to enter.

A list of start times will be on the club’s website in the days before the event.

The start times are organised by your estimated swim time so please understand that you may not be starting close to your friends if you have different swim times.

On the day you need to have registered and picked up your number at least 45 minutes before your start time. You need to be on poolside 15 minutes before your start time.
