Galloway Recycle Sportive

Galloway ReCycle Sportive  is an annual summer event organised by the Rotary Club of Kirkcudbright to raise money for charities. Run by volunteers, its costs are kept to a minimum so that almost all the money raised goes directly to the charities themselves.

Starting and finishing in Kirkcudbright, three amazing routes (30 miles, 67 miles and 80 miles) cater for different levels of fitness and stamina. All routes take riders through a variety of quiet, beautiful scenery along the coast, beside lochs, through woodland and up and down some fantastic hills. Food, water, first aid kits and toilets are available on all routes.

Registration is at Kirkcudbright Church Hall.

For the long and medium distance routes registration will open at 0745, with riders starting between 0830 and 0900. The majority of riders start at 0830

For the short route registration will open at 0900, with riders starting between 0930 and 1000. The majority of riders start at 0930.

Finish cut off time is 1500 at Kirkcudbright Church Hall.

A broom wagon will pick up stragglers if required. 

Riders should follow the large fluorescent yellow arrows and the route marshall’s directions.  

First aid kits will be provided at feed stations and public toilets can be found in New Galloway,  and Castle Douglas.
