The Eroica Story
Eroica Britannia was started by four friends who took part in L’Eroica in 2008. Falling in love with everything it stood for, their vision was to create a ride in the wonderful English countryside and build a family-friendly festival. Eroica Britannia celebrates heritage, the best of food & drink, outfitting & style, craftsmanship, music & entertainment, with the joy of cycling leading the way.

Eroica Britannia: Vision
Eroica Britannia stands for authenticity, adventure, heritage, and passion. Riding through beautiful countryside on vintage bikes rekindles the adventurous spirit an earlier era.
More than a bike ride, Eroica Britannia brings the past to life and challenges each rider to accomplish something great.
Giancarlo Brocci, the Italian founder of L’Eroica, encourages us to "discover the beauty of fatigue and the thrill of the conquest."
We remain true to Giancarlo's vision.
