Tour O The Borders organiser slams council’s “utterly ridiculous and disingenuous” claim that it is not responsible for sportive’s demise SBC said it is “fully committed” to the event, despite claims it relented to locals unhappy at road closures cycling
> Tour O The Borders sportive faces cancellation after residents complain about event’s road closures
“We worked extensively with the organisers, Hillside Outside to consider alternative route options and ensure a fresh and engaging experience for participants and communities. “The implication was that if this year’s event was well received by participants, business, and communities alike, this could present an opportunity to take forward the planning of the 2024 event. The Council recognises the significance of this event and the positive economic impact that it can bring to the region.
“The wording coming from the council does not in our opinion give an accurate reflection of what has been happening over the past few months, and demonstrates an unwillingness to accept responsibility in their part in how we’ve arrived here.> Farmer who stopped Borders sportive says the event is"a waste of police time"
