Cancelled through lack of interest

I think most sportive punters would expect timing chips and a gps route, neither of which The Beast has.

They had a gps route up thisyear

Just out of interest what do you think a good sportive should entail or provide?

Decent food and a well marshalled route. What else do you need?

If there where no timing chips or published times ala Audax.
Would people still do Sportives?

Yes.

The Manchester 100 has no timing chip, nor any free feed stations. Same thing for the Manchester to Blackpool.
