[edit] CTC Triennial Veterans Ride

The Triennial Veterans Rides are 100-mile events run across the country every three years. They're specifically for club veterans aged 50-plus. Camaraderie runs high, as does the determination to complete the ride whatever the odds. You have 12 hours to finish.

This year the rides are taking place at a number of locations across the country - one of which will be starting near Exeter.

[edit] CTC Exeter - Triennial Veterans Ride - Saturday 12^th June 2010

The Exeter ride is a coast-to-coast ride visiting Watchet in the north and Budleigh Salterton in the south. The route is hillier than many of the other triennial rides, so riders and machines need to be prepared for the challenge.

[edit] Route Details

Start and finish in Kentisbeare, near Cullompton. Kentisbeare Village Hall will be open from 7.15am for registration, with riders starting in groups from 8am.

The 100 mile route has about 6,500 feet (2,200m) total climb. The route avoids hills wherever practical, but Devon is known for its undulations. There is only one arrow on the route and the second half of the ride is flatter than the first half.
