Start and finish inside the Riverside Stadium, right next to the tunnel! We’ll line all the riders up right next to where the dug out is, what a start to a great day of cycling!
The short route gets to enjoy a huge amount of what Teesside and Yorkshire has to offer. An urban start past the Old Town Clock, along to the Transporter Bridge and then onto the River Tees Cycle Path. When then head towards North Yorkshire, soon we are on Country roads, little villages and amazing hills and moorland which Yorkshire is famous for.
We’ve got a feed stop at Kildale where you’ll enjoy our local brownies and flapjack (York), Pork Pies and Sausage Rolls (Kippax, Leeds), Fresh Sarnies (York), a Yorkshire Brew and as much High 5 as you can get into your pockets!
From there we head back towards the Riverside, again on a mix of stunning Yorkshire and dramatic Urban roads. To finish we ride into the Riverside Stadium and back to Michal Carrick’s seat to receive your medal, a hot BBQ sausage bun (Kippax) and a chilled can of Erdinger Alkoholfrei. An amazing day out for any cyclist!
