The berkeley road race
The Berkeley road race is a annual road race that follows a 85.1 mile route through the Gloucestershire country side. It starts and finishes in front of the world renown Berkeley campus secondary school in Wanswell. Usually during the race there are break away groups due to the hilly nature of the race, although there has twice been a bunch sprint at the finish line. First winner was Donovan Biggs in 2013 who edged elder brother Gavin in a sprint finish after they had broken away on the Tytherington Hill, a midway point during the race. 

It is usually held mid-June and is a well attended local event and always a thriller to watch.

Most wins : Brendan Pavey 2014, 2016

with William brown close behind in 2013.
