The Spring Onion is Sponsored by Moda Bikes and Supports Action Medical Research
We’re thrilled to announce that Moda is the official sponsor for the 18th edition of the Spring Onion! With Moda’s passion for high-quality cycling, this partnership takes our event to the next level.
Since 2009, Moda has been dedicated to crafting high-quality bicycles, designed, tested, and assembled in the UK. Their passionate team, with decades of cycling experience, works tirelessly to create bikes that deliver an unbeatable riding experience. Tested on the challenging roads of Lancashire and refined with input from top athletes, Moda bikes are built to perform. Assembled by expert mechanics in the UK, every Moda bike is ready to offer you the best ride from day one.
The Spring Onion is now in its 18th edition and we couldn’t be happier. We have altered the course on a few occasions over the years and feel we are close to the perfect course. With that in mind we have decided to reset the event times , start 08:30 , feed closes at 13:00 and event finishes at 16:00.
Support and Mechanical back thanks to PEDAL ACTIVE
