About the series

Sportives from Hay-on-Wye

We’ve been running and riding cycling events from our base here in Hay-on-Wye for many years, and we like to think we know what makes a great sportive. Brilliant roads, superb scenery, well-stocked feed stations and mountains of homemade cake. The Drover Cycles Devil series puts all of that together across some of the most spectacular cycling terrain in Wales and the Marches.
