February is arguably the most romantic month of the year; and it’s safe to say that the team at Just Racing UK have got that lovin’ feeling. They want nothing more than to shout about this from the rooftops – and those who know the team, will understand that they are very good at this! And so, a Valentines Day promotion is being put in place for 14-17 February.
To celebrate Valentines Day, Just Racing is offering a discount of 50% off a second entry when couples sign up for either of its 2014 sportives – the Quattro and Squires & Spires. The ‘buy one, get one 1/2 price’ deal is designed to encourage people to take part in a challenge together and enjoy the positive benefits that it can have on relationships.
As Just Racing points out, ‘Couples who train together, stay together – need we say anything more?’
The Quattro takes place on 6 April 2014, with the start and finish located in the small village of Cogenhoe in Northamptonshire. Competitors can choose between a 50-mile, 63-mile or 84 mile course, and each route takes in some of the most scenic rural roads in the UK. The event is so called as the 84 mile loop extends across four counties – Northamptonshire, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire.
The Squires and Spires cycle event is on 4 May 2014, starting and finishing in Naseby, Northamptonshire. There are two cycling routes on offer; the 78 mile ‘The Duchess’ or 50 mile ‘The Maid’, and both courses enjoy the beautiful rolling Northamptonshire countryside, passing the many beautiful country estates and ancient churches steeped in history.
Both events are suitable for all ages and abilities, and will also be well supported by the Just Racing UK crew, with comprehensive feed stations along the bike offering a variety of sweet and savoury snacks as well as nutrition from USN. Past years have seen flapjacks, wine gums, crisps, malt loaf, scotch eggs, sausage rolls, and cheese and onion rolls – so competitors may be in for a treat!
Alan Rose, Just Racing UK Event Director said, “Our sportives are the perfect opportunity to start off your sportive season or prepare for the bike leg of some longer distance triathlons. The rural roads are the cycling routes we use a lot during our own training, so we’re very pleased to be able to share them with you.”
He continued, “It’s well documented that working out together can have positive effects on a relationship, and we look forward to seeing lots of couples there on the start line!”
This offer is available from 9:00 GMT on Friday 14 February to 17:00 on Monday 17 February; and the discount will be automatically deducted when two race entries are completed in one transaction.
