Dartmoor Classic female cyclist at Princetown Feed Station

2024 Entry now open

Join 4000 like minded riders on one of the UK's favourite cycle sportives running for over 15 years.
Cycle Dartmoor's open roads across beautiful countryside with spectacular views. Our routes are planned to take on famous climbs such as Haytor which has been included in the Tour of Britain.

‍

When riding the Dartmoor Classic you'll be taken care of all the way from free parking at the start, happy marshals en-route, plenty of food included at the feed stations, rider mechanical support and if your legs just can't make it, we'll get you back to the finish in our rider support bus.

Places are now open for new entries. We look forward to seeing you !

Ride the
Dartmoor Classic
for charity.

The Dartmoor Classic is managed and run by cyclists from Mid Devon Cycle Club for the benefit of local cyclists and charities.
This year we're pleased to be supporting AIMS located in Dawlish, Devon.

‍

No to a t-shirt, YES to a tree !

Due to popular demand, it's now possible to support tree planting on Dartmoor by choosing not to receive cycling goodies and instead we will send a donation to moortrees.org. Your selection can be made at online entry and you will also receive a coloured number to indicate your support. UPDATE: Thanks to all the riders who chose this option for their 2023 entry - You've planted 400 trees !!

‍

Take a quick look at our Dartmoor Classic video to see how it's run by members of Mid Devon Cycling Club and local volunteers.

‍The Dartmoor Classic not only donates to charities, we also donate to local sports clubs, schools, villages on route, Dartmoor Search and Rescue, the Air Ambulance plus many more each year. As a rider you can rest assured knowing that part of your entry fee supports Dartmoor National Park and the surrounding area.
