Event Details


Poppyscotland Sportive 2019

The Poppyscotland Sportive has three fantastic routes. There’s something for everyone! Starting in Prestonpans, you can decide which challenge to take.

Beautiful East Lothian appeals to families, cycling groups, friends and individuals alike – with plenty of flat terrain and a few challenging hills, the peaceful rolling countryside and quiet roads allow for glorious vistas of the surrounding scenery.

Riders can take on the Poppyscotland Sportive challenge for many reasons: to achieve their own personal goals, raise money and support the Armed Forces community in need or to be part of the third best Sportive in Scotland (as ranked by Sportive.com in 2017), which is famous for its friendly and welcoming volunteers and participants.

Fundraising is not mandatory but it is very welcome and if you raise more than £100 in sponsorship, we’ll give you a Poppyscotland Sportive cycling jersey for free!
