Route Description
Begin from the Yorkshire start pens and travel CCW, heading downhill and taking a hard left at the first intersection to head up the Yorkshire KOM Reverse. (Tip: take note of this climb, because your race finishes here.) Keep pushing hard through the banner at the top, then enjoy a bit of recovery as you descend.
It won’t last long, though, because this course is a continual cycle of punchy climbs followed by short descents. You’ll make your way around the main Yorkshire loop, eventually riding through the start/finish banner and heading right to make a CCW loop of the small upper portion of the Yorkshire course.
This loop takes you through the Yorkshire Sprint Reverse then straight through the intersection to come up through the shops to the main start/finish banner. Now you’re on the main Yorkshire loop again, but in the opposite direction you started with. That means taking on the Yorkshire KOM from the other side before descending and climbing up to the Yorkshire Sprint. You’re almost done!
Finish that small upper loop in a CW direction, then barrel through the intersection and head up the Yorkshire KOM Reverse one last time. The finish line is at the top!
