YAW100K Sportive – 2024

Sixty two riders successfully conquered 100-kilometers of playfully undulating Wiltshire roads in the fifth edition of the YAW100K cycle sportive.

The ride started at Melksham Town Football Club with riders setting off in small groups heading out across Salisbury Plain, through the Avon Valley where a feed station in the village of Enford allowed them to ‘refuel’, before  skirting the edge of the Marlborough Downs and heading back through Devizes and onto the finish line back in Melksham.

The fastest rider completed the course in an impressive three hours and twenty-eight minutes with the Stampede Sports Tail Riders following the field home in five and a quarter hours. All finishers were rewarded for their endeavours with a medal and High5 goody pack.

The event has raised £1,000 for young persons charity “Youth Action Wiltshire”.
