A challenging road biking event principally in open countryside and on the high moorland to the north west of Sheffield – an estimated 70% of the riding is on beautiful super-smooth tarmac as laid for Stage 2 of the 2014 Tour de France.
Not one for the faint hearted or for those that like flat roads, we promise back-to-back tough 20% gradient climbs throughout the 63km long route option which has a total of 1757m of ascent including the classic climbs of Oughtibridge, Midhopestones and Bradfield. The shorter 33km route in the same area has 915m of climbing.
