Distances: 107 miles
Difficulty: Difficult terrain with longer, steeper hills

One of Wales' best-known sportives, it's the distance and the high chances of a headwind most of the way rather than the fairly benign roads that create the main challenge.

From the outset of CARTEN100 the two main objectives of this fun cycle are to set an achievable challenge for novice riders to encourage them to become fit and enjoy cycling, and to raise money for good causes – almost 'half a million pounds' raised so far!!

CARTEN100 is not a race, but a fun day out with more experienced riders helping and encouraging those who have less experience and confidence. Each year, riders return fitter and keener and on newer, better bikes but they bring their friends, family and work colleagues with them to enjoy the challenge.

There has always been a great camaraderie between the riders and this is cemented after the event when we encourage the participants and supporters to have a great night out in Tenby wearing the polo shirts, which are awarded to the participants after completing the ride, worn as a ‘badge of honour’.
