Have entered this one. Mainly on my local roads, but not a route I would normally link together.

Planning a Recce ride tomorrow, so I will let you know how it goes!

Same weekend as the East Yorkshire Classic, with racing on the Friday night in the town Centre and on the Sunday. Should make for a cracking event and make the trip to Beverley well worth it.

    It is going to be a belter!

    Fantastic route. Rode the first 2/3rds today before my legs told me they hadn't recovered from the weekend and I had to limp back to Beverley. Will be heading out again to bag the full route in a few days.

    Well worth a look!

    It's the weekend after the Rydale rumble. I don't think my legs will be able to take both in such a short time space. Anybody else doing both?

    Gumball3000, did you do the WRC? If so how does it compare to the 80 mile route in terms of effort/difficulty etc?

    Missed the WRC due to being ill.

    I rode the Kirklees at the start of the season and this is certainly on the same lines. Nothing like Holme Moss, but there are certainly some great climbs. Still reckon it will be well worth an entry.
