** BIG NEWS ** Fancy yourself as a Battle on the Beach winner? Think you have what it takes to beat Bram Imming or Harriet Harnden? For 2020 the prize purse is increasing to £1000 for each winner! Is it the biggest prize purse for any single day cycling event in the UK?

What big names might grace the start line in 2020? In 2018 we were proud to have Paris-Roubaix & TDF Stage winner Magnus Bäckstedt lined up beside his daughter Zöe who finished an incredible 3rd in Open Female. Olympian Nick Craig also started this year, finishing 5th overall.

How many stars have you earned? Do we have many people who will have a big no.6? At the last count less than 50 riders had completed every single Battle on the Beach!
