The Wiggle Hayward Heath Howler is now in its 4th year. This tough, challenging sportive in spectacular surroundings is getting a reputation for being one of the toughest on the Wiggle Super Series calendar. With 2500m+ of climbing, the route is jam packed with big hills including the famous Ditchling Beacon.
The route is not all about climbing though… with stunning views, quiet roads, and 2 breathtaking reservoirs (Weir Wood & Ardingly). On the 96 mile route, your legs will be howling, while your mind takes in the scenery.
Starting from the historic and prestigious Ardingly College this Sportive is a must do event, which will provide a real sense of achievement. 65 and 40 miles routes options are available and are equally as breathtaking and challenging! Certainly an event you will want to tell your riding buddies you completed!

We want to encourage young riders to enjoy the pleasure of cycling. That's why all riders under 16 years ride for free when accompanied by a paying adult!
Online pre-entry is the easiest way of entering and saves £3.00 per person vs. entering on the day. Online pre-entry will save you time on the day of the event allowing you to simply pick up your registration pack from the 'Pre entered collection point' and avoid having to queue up. Please note: if a event reaches its capacity we will have to close the event to riders wanting to enter on the day. It is therefore best to pre enter online to avoid disappointment!
On the day entries are available at all our events as long as the event has not sold out prior to the event day. On the day entries are subject to an additional £3.00 per person surcharge. Payment can be made with cash or cheque. You can fill out an entry form when you arrive at the event. One entry form must be completed per person. Wiggle Customers will not be able to receive any loyalty discounts on the day.
Although all our rides are non competitive events (i.e. not races), most people still like to know how well they've done. With this in mind we will time each participants ride. When you complete your ride your time will be calculated and these timings, along with the timing Award you achieved, will be displayed on the Website. Each rider will receive a timing award of either; bronze, silver or gold, depending on their average speed. Of course, some riders aren't bothered about all these awards and just cycle for the experience and stunning scenery.
www.sportivephoto.com will be taking pictures of all riders at this event. Please visit www.sportivephoto.com once you have taken part in the event to view your photos!
