Route Description

Racers will have to keep their eyes open and legs primed in Glasgow, because it’s never flat. Be especially wary of The Clyde Kicker; it is the route’s main climb, named for the river running through the city and the bridge you can see as you summit the climb.
And watch for that final Champion’s Sprint, where racers will put it all on the line for glory!
If you’re not racing, take some time to look for famous Glasgow sights like the Finnieston Crane, Central Station, Clyde Arc bridge, and an equestrian statue which may or may not be crowned with a traffic cone.
