On-line registration for the 2012 edition of the Dartmoor Classic goes live at midnight on Saturday, 29th October 2011.

Organised by the Mid-Devon C.C. in association with Specialized, the UCI sanctioned fixture will take place on Sunday 24th June, with the extensive ‘Depart Village’ opening on Saturday. Trade exhibitors, family attractions, live music and on-site catering are all part of the vibrant atmosphere created in the Village throughout the two-day festival.

Riders of 14 nationalities plus all the home nations were represented in last summer’s ride, when the female-friendly facilities welcomed over 300 women. The event is noted for its smooth organisation, well-stocked feeding stations and unique granite finishers’ trophy.

The entry fee remains unchanged at £27 for a choice of routes through the breathtaking scenery of the Dartmoor National Park. The popular cyclosportive promotion is always oversubscribed and an early sell-out of places is again expected.
