The course can be described as flat and rolling so is perfect for riders looking to rack up the miles or complete their first sportive.
Starting off at Market Rasen Racecourse we head south, immediately out on to quiet, traffic free, open country roads. Before heading for Lincoln the short course splits at Bardney, here the epic and standard courses cross the River Witham before hugging its banks through Washingborough, where we find our first feed stop on the outskirts of Lincoln. With a quick view of Lincoln Cathedral we again strike south to Metheringham for the Standard split.
The Epic riders will head as far south as Ruskington to then head north for an experience of miles of straight roads that surround the Wolds, here you can really open up and cover some ground. Cutting through many of the areas smaller enclosures, we pass by the old roman town of Horncastle before diving into the Lincolnshire Wolds for our final stretch back to the finish.
At the finish a warm welcome, massages, refreshments and a Finishers Medal will be waiting.
