North-West, South-East

Description

404km cycling event starting from Heeley, Sheffield. Controls at Coop, Scholes, Leeming Bar Services, Morrisons, Boroughbridge, Esso Service Station, Tadcaster, Askern Services, Texaco Service Station, Thorpe Hesley and Heeley Institute., plus 9 information controls.

Be part of the the All Points North endurance cycling weekend by riding this 400k event. You will follow most of the North by North West 2 x 200k route but won't have the luxury of an overnight stop.

This is a ride of two halves, with a series of tough Pennine climbs and few facilities heading north for the first 200k, but an easier return along the Vale of York making use of several 24-hour services on the southward leg. The route mostly follows minor roads and cycle paths, but has one short section of gravel near Easingwold and some steadier hills towards the end. Pre-start drinks and snacks, plus choice of curries and other refreshments at the end are all included.
