The long is a perfect warm up for anyone riding in our March/ April Monument Sportives, test out new kit, brake the monotony of Winter Training and put Zwift away for a few days!

The atmosphere is always great, loads of smiles, the best signage you’ll see, brilliant food at the feeds and all the ride support you need!

We’ve not gone in search of any mountains, there are some lumps but we’ve aimed to be kind and slowly break you in!

An awesome feed stop at Great Smeaton Village Hall where you’ll find all the Velo29 treats you expect.

From the feed we say good bye to the short route riders and head into some great little Yorkshire Roads.

There is a HILL on the West Harsley to East Harsley section, it’s not too bad but you’ll know about it!

We find a stunning peice of road where we cross the Tees at Low Dinsdale Manor, we doubt many of you have been down there before.

A great medal awaits you back at Darlington along with a hot BBQ Sausage Bun and chilled can of erdinger alkoholfrei.
