Learn MoreThe Cyclone Festival of Cycling attracts thousands of cyclists and spectators to the North East.
The Tyne 6 Bridges family/leisure rides take place on traffic-free routes alongside the Tyne, starting and finishing in central Newcastle.
Thousands of riders take on the four routes of the Cyclone Challenge Rides through Northumberland's matchless landscapes. Meticulously planned and signposted, these rides have extensive first aid and mechanical support as well as a number of well-stocked feeds. Many of the villages on the routes also ply riders with home-made cakes and teas. This is one of the UK's premier "sportive" events and should be on the bucket-list of any keen cyclist.
The third day of the festival takes place in the autumn and sees the focus switch to elite racing with the women's Curlew Cup elite road race in the morning and the Beaumont Trophy elite men's race in the afternoon. Both races will attract an array of top riders and provide great spectating opportunities.
