Chase the Sun - Version 2 - shorter and slower - 19-21 June, 2026

If you liked the idea of Phil's Chase the Sun next June, 2026, but were put off by the distances and the speed, then Joy and I are proposing a shorter and slower ride but still following Phil’s route, (however, we don’t go as far as Ramsgate/Dover), but we do chase the sun on the longest day on the way back.

Friday, 19th June: We start from Rowlands where there is plenty of parking to leave a car for a couple of days if you wish to drive to the start. We then cycle to Tunbridge Wells via Midhurst, 70 miles, and stay at The Mercure Hotel. Stopping along the way for coffee/lunch stops. The speed will be approx 10-11 mph throughout the 3 days and will be a relaxing tour.

Saturday, 20th June: We then set off from Tunbridge Wells and cycle to Rye which is a very pretty historic village where we can grab lunch then cycle down to Eastbourne (60 miles). There is a lot of choice of hotels at Eastbourne at roughly £65/night. Option for swim after the cycle ride. Evening meal in the town - there are lots of restaurants/cafes etc. As this is crossing the High Weald, there will be some hills, but I will avoid where possible any steep hills. Hotel for Eastbourne is: Afton Hotel.

Sunday, 21st June: From Eastbourne we cycle back home to Havant (68 miles) - obviously this is a flat route as it is along the coast. However, if anyone is tired, then there is the option to catch a train at the many railway stations on the way back. It is possible that Phil’s Ramsgate/Dover group will catch us up somewhere along the way.

Both hotels above are happy to take bikes. Hotel bookings will be down to individuals to book, and I would suggest using booking.com as you do not have to pay upfront, also go for free cancellation and if you use your mobile to book, it comes out slightly cheaper.

GPX Route to be uploaded later.

Fri 24th July to Sat 1st August (8 nights or come along for as long as you like)

With a hint that summer may finally be on its way, it’s time to start looking ahead. This year’s New Forest Family Cycling Week will run from Friday 24th July to Saturday 1st August 2026. It may feel a long way off, but now is the perfect moment to get it in the diary and start looking forward to another memorable summer.

For those who have been before, you’ll know exactly what makes the week so special. For anyone new, it’s a relaxed, welcoming gathering where people of all ages and abilities come together to enjoy cycling, fresh air, and good company. Whether you’re a keen rider, a casual cyclist, or simply prefer a gentle walk and a picnic, there is always something to enjoy.

Days tend to take on a rhythm of their own. There are scenic rides through the forest, longer outings for those who want to stretch their legs, and plenty of opportunities for beach trips, paddling and crabbing. Along the way there are picnics, wildlife spotting, and the all-important ice cream stops. Back at camp, games, quizzes and children’s races bring everyone together, while the evenings offer a chance to relax, laugh and enjoy everything from informal gatherings to the ever-popular barn dance.

What really makes the week work, though, is the people. The rally is entirely volunteer-led, and its character comes from those who take part. Rides are led by whoever is keen to share a route, activities happen because someone has an idea and runs with it, and everyone contributes in their own way. It’s not about perfection, but about creating something inclusive, flexible and friendly that everyone can be part of.

We will once again be based in the rally field at Hurst View Leisure Campsite in Pennington, which has become a much-loved home for the week. You can book your stay direct with them in advance if you prefer to plan ahead, or simply arrive and join us. Either way, you’ll find a warm welcome. Please mention the cycling rally when booking.

If you enjoy the week, the best way to help it grow is simply to spread the word. Invite friends, bring family members, and encourage anyone who might be curious about cycling or camping to come along. Many people join for the first time not knowing quite what to expect, and quickly become part of the group.

New Forest Family Cycling Week has always been about keeping things simple, open and enjoyable. It may not be polished, but that is very much part of its charm. It is a chance to switch off, spend time outdoors, and share a week of small adventures and good company.

We hope to see many familiar faces again this summer, and plenty of new ones too. For now, save the date and start the countdown.

Announcements will also be made via the Announcements on the WhatsApp Community which you can request to join.

Entries are now open for this years Gridiron event.

There are 1000 places available, but they fill fast so don't delay if you want to take part.

New Forest Gridiron entry

Join us in the 33rd running of the iconic ‘GridIron 100’.

One of the oldest on-road Cycle Randonnée’s in the UK. Acclaimed for the beauty of its route, along scenic minor roads, on a circuit of the New Forest adorned in its bright patchwork of stunning autumn colours.

Following last years success we again offer the choice of two routes. The original ‘Classic 100k’, designed to appeal to cyclists of a wide range of abilities and the inaugural ‘Challenge 100 mile’ - a much more demanding ride for the experienced cyclist.

Both routes use the same start/finish and the same two controls/halls along the route. This means that you can ‘mix and match’ the two routes. If you have started on the ‘Challenge 100 mile’ route and feel knackered by the time you reach the 2nd control, continue on the shorter ‘Classic 100k’. Conversely, if you have started on the ‘Classic 100k’ and feel mighty strong at the 2nd control, you can continue on the longer and more challenging ‘Challenge 100 mile’. The choice is entirely yours, just ensure you are capable of cycling whichever distance you choose. Aim to enjoy it!
