MADHARE EVENTS RETURN IN 2021!
After a very challenging 12 months since the cancellation of last years event we are very happy to finally be bringing back the Mad March Hare - albeit in MAY!
The new date means we can be confident in bringing you the best possible event given the current government road map for easing Corona Virus restrictions.
As the transfer deadline for the event has now past, we’re able to open up 100 more entries due to the people who can't make the new date.
So for those that missed out now is your opportunity to come and cycle with us!
RIDE
Ride a picturesque route through Worcestershire, Staffordshire & Shropshire countryside. We know the challenges of winter riding so we make sure that all madhares are supported along the way mentally & physically with our team at the top of the hills handing out sweets & the helpful mechanic team.
EAT
You never go hungry on a Mad Hare event!
There's a massive array of sweet and savoury options at the feed station plus hot and cold drinks to fuel your ride.
At the end of your epic ride you'll tuck into the best bacon / veggie sandwich you've ever eaten.
DRINK
There's a variety of energy drinks plus free tea and coffee at the start and feed station.
Plus there'll be a real ale beer tent for that all important ride debrief with friends.

2021 ROUTE
Starting off in Longbridge, you will soon be on quiet, rolling country roads through the scenic villages of Clent and Kinver, the Severn Valley and into the stunning Wyre Forest.
After 50km of rolling roads you'll be able to refuel on copious amounts of sweet and savoury food at our indoor feed station and re-hydrate on energy drinks, tea and coffee.
You'll then enjoy the descent into Stourport and the the first bit of flat on the route. It won't last long though - at at Wychbold you'll start the ascent back towards Birmingham with a little kicker to get over the Licky hills which will feel like Alpe d'Huez on any overwintered legs.
The effort will be soon forgotten back at HQ though when you smash into the best bacon / veggie sandwich you've ever eaten and wash it down with a pint.
