Rapha returns for the third year as title sponsor of Britain's oldest, and greatest, one-day race. We’re proud to support grassroots racing and keep Britain’s cobbled classic alive, so join us on the famous Michaelgate climb for a thrilling day of pro cycling action.
Despite its place in British cycling history, increasing challenges and rising costs make the race harder to run each year. In response, we’ve boosted our commitment to ensure the race can go ahead. We’re also bringing the Rapha Archive Sale to Lincoln for the first time, where riders and fans can shop a wide range of clothing at reduced prices, with profits funding this year’s sponsorship.
You can join our first Archive Sale in Lincoln from Friday to Sunday at The Blue Room. Find great deals on past-season kit for your summer wardrobe.
Opening Hours:
• Friday 12th May: 1pm – 6pm
• Saturday 13th May: 9am – 3pm
• Sunday 14th May: 9am – 12pm
Sign up to the official Lincoln GP Sportive and tackle the Michaelgate climb yourself, with three routes to choose from: 35, 62 or 102 miles. RCC members receive 10% off entry, with details on the RCC app.
