got mildly interested then but....

Unless I'm massively missing something its a 100% road ride..

A cyclosportive (often referred to as a sportive, a challenge ride or cycle leisure ride) is a mass participation bicycle event that combines elements of road bicycle racing and long distance bicycle touring.

A good lightweight road bike, in good condition, with a wide range of gears will be suitable.

Hmmm this is not good news for me! On wiggles website it is under the MTB events section and mentions heading across moorland, through valleys and describes it as a MTB event.
