Ripon Tour Sportive is a one-day cyclosportive held on Saturday 11 July 2026 with HQ at Thirsk School, Topcliffe Road, Sowerby, Thirsk. The event is organised by Velo29 Events and offers three signed routes—Short, Medium and Long—through scenic Yorkshire lanes and Dales countryside, with the long route tackling landmark climbs such as the Buttertubs, Robin Cross Hill and Grinton Moor. The page highlights support on-route, feed stops and a finish-line atmosphere with refreshments and a commemorative medal for finishers.
Pre-event arrangements require riders to book a time slot via the organiser's pre-event communications: booking windows open Tuesday 10:00 until Thursday 18:00, with entries closing one week before the event and no entries permitted on the day. Riders receive “Get Ready” and “Act Now” emails in the week prior with links to the Pre-Event Questionnaire and time-slot booking; the organiser also runs a series-wide jersey incentive for riders who book three Velo29 sportives in 2026. The event page provides practical information on feeds, approximate ride durations and contact emails for pre-event enquiries.
