The Wiggle Vale Velo, now in its second year, is an early-season sportive designed to get you back into your best form and ready for the rest of the riding calendar.
The course allows you to chip away at the miles while tackling occasionally testing terrain. With almost 4,000ft of climbing over the Epic route, this is a quick and speedy course, presenting to you some of the best views the Vale of York and the Yorkshire Wolds have to offer, while also providing an early-year wake-up call for the legs.
Starting from the York Auction Centre, the course heads straight out onto the roads of the stunning North Yorkshire district, while also threading through the quaint and typically pretty villages of the area. First, the route bears east, taking you past the historic battleground of Stamford Bridge, before heading up to Low Callis Wold.
At this point, riders of the Short course split and head north to re-join the course at Leavening, while Epic and Standard riders continue east to pass through North Dalton, soon to take their own path north.
Once again, the course splits shortly after and just before Sledmere House, sending Standard riders west as Epic riders continue to ride east even further, to the farthest point on the course in Rudston. Here, we start to head for home, and as the finish closes in, two final climbs lay in wait before the long, gradual descent back to York.
Back at ride HQ you will receive a warm welcome along with a finisher’s medal and t-shirt.
Thank you for the extensive transcription.
Cyclists have the right to use the roads— they are public roads, not bus, car, or HGV roads.
🤣🤣 i have been using cyclo cross bikes on the road for 15 years !...
Accurate "how-to" then 😂
It's worse - I tried it once (over 25 years ago), never again. I ignore the phone now or pull over and stop, that bit's easier than for car...
Looking at some of my local byelaws, many of them are phrased along the lines of:...
car is costly but once the tax etc is paid (which you can't avoid - well, outside of Lancs...)...
Lone female drivers can't kill you if they hit you because they're texting when driving? Can I send Mrs H out to shoplift me some beer on the basis...
Beter then no protection at all. I see / or it looks it's like a vest of some kind ? How is that going to work on a climb in the vuelta at 38° ??
Dt swiss so practically bomb-proof....
