SPIRIT OF THE FESTIVE 500
The Spirit of the Festive 500 awards riders who capture their kilometres with craft and creativity. Graphics, photography, floristry and poems, igloos, postcards and that infamous Strava art. Whichever way you choose to express it, we love to see you light up your journey in imaginative ways. We will celebrate our favourites with a range of prizes.
Dear Festive 500 rider,
We see your early starts,
Your battle with the snooze button.
We see you empty the tank,
The acid burning in your legs.
We see the rain in your shoes,
That third puncture in 24 hours.
We see your determination.
We see you supporting each other.
We see you almost broken.
We see that satisfied smile.
We see you.
Sincerely,
Rapha
