Route Description

Your ride begins in Holyhead before heading south along the coast, with beautiful sea views accompanying the opening miles. Around 10 miles into your ride comes one of the highlights of the Tour de Môn: the legendary Flying Mile at RAF Valley. With the runway closed exclusively for the event, this is your chance to put the power down, race against the clock and see just how fast you can go.

From RAF Valley, the route heads into the heart of Anglesey. Quiet country lanes lead you through rolling farmland and villages including Bryngwran, Gwalchmai and Bodffordd. And don't be fooled by Anglesey's reputation for being flat, there's enough undulating terrain along the way to make those feed station treats well earned.

The final section takes you through Llanfachraeth and Valley before turning for Holyhead and the welcome sight of the finish line.

Whether it's your first sportive, a ride with friends or the chance to experience Tour de Môn without taking on the longer distances, the Bach delivers a memorable day on two wheels.

46 miles. Big scenery. One unforgettable ride.

You will need to attend registration, which will take place on Saturday afternoon or before the event on Sunday morning - we will confirm specific times in your Final Instructions, which will be available on the website and via email 10 days before the race.

The Bach ride usually starts between 08:30 and 09:00, though this is subject to change. Riders will not be allowed to leave after the allotted time. The start time will be confirmed in the Final Instructions, which are available to view on the website 10 days before the race.

We encourage slower cyclists to start towards the front of the allotted time slot.

Groups of no more than 25 riders will be allowed to start together, and groups will be set off at 3-minute intervals.

Cut Off Times

In the interest of rider safety and the safety of our volunteers on the course, there will be staged cut-off times in place:

Cyclists must get from the start to the Flying Mile at RAF Valley (11.2 miles) by 11:00; after this time, you will not be permitted to access the airfield due to flying operations in progress.
Chip timing will stop at approximately 18:00.

A confirmation of specific timings will be detailed in your Final Instructions, which will be available on the website and via email 10 days before your race.

Bike Breakdown

You will be expected to carry inner tubes as well as all tools and kit necessary for any on-route cycle repairs. We advise that you carry a mobile phone. There will be event vehicles patrolling the route that may be able to carry out very minor repairs.

Come prepared because the roads are much too nice for you not to enjoy them from your bike!
