The Suffolk Celebration Sportive is all about enjoying the ride — whether it’s your very first event or a relaxed day out on the bike with friends.
Set on quiet, scenic Suffolk roads, this is a welcoming and beginner-friendly sportive designed to build confidence, not test your limits. With a choice of family, 12, 25, 50 mile or 100 kilometre routes, you can ride at your own pace and choose a distance that suits you.
If you’re new to events, this is the perfect place to start. And if you’re a regular rider, why not bring someone along and help them take on their first sportive — or even guide them to their first century!
With a range of distances to choose from, there’s something for everyone — from a relaxed family ride through to a rewarding 100km challenge.
All routes are fully signposted and supported by the friendly TPR Events team, so you can focus on enjoying the ride.
Riders on the 25 and 50 mile routes will enjoy well-stocked drink and snack stations along the way, while those taking on the 100km route will be rewarded with a complimentary lunch.
Whether you’re riding solo, with friends, or introducing someone to their first event, the Suffolk Celebration is all about great riding, good company, and a supportive atmosphere from start to finish.
Routes
At TPR Events, we’re dedicated to creating the best routes for riders to enjoy. Every route is carefully plotted, analysed, risk-assessed, tested, and fully signposted, giving you the confidence to ride with peace of mind. Plus, all routes will be available to download as GPX files, providing turn-by-turn directions on your phone or GPS device. GPX files will be available a few days before the event, after our final checks for road closures and obstructions.
For the Suffolk Celeberation Sportive 2026, we are crafting 5 exciting routes to offer something for every rider:
100 Kilometre
50 Mile
25 Mile
12 Mile
- Family Distance
We are currently working hard to create some unforgettable routes for you to enjoy. We have drafted the routes and have began testing. Route distances and elevation are not final. The final routes will be confirmed once we have ridden them all ourselves and are completey happy with them.
Check back soon for changes!
