Cycling Weekly's 2009 cyclo sportve calendar>>>
The 2009 Dragon Ride has already sold out, with eight weeks still to go before the event takes place on Sunday, June 14.
The ride, based in the Brecon Beacons, has quickly gained an elevated status as having a tough yet rewarding route. It has become one of the 'must ride' events for any British challenge rider.
"This is truly fantastic news for cycling in the UK and of course for South Wales," commented Dragon Ride organiser Lou Lusardi on the event's fast sell-out.
"I don't think anyone would have predicted just how strong the market still is. We're terribly proud of, and grateful for, the loyalty of the thousands of riders who have become part of the Dragon Ride family."
FIVE DRAGON RIDE PLACES UP FOR AUCTION
Although all 3,000 places on the event have officially been taken - there are five spaces going up for auction, giving a very lucky few extra riders the chance to take part in the event.
