The climb begins when you hit the stone bridge at the bottom of the descent and turn a sharp left. The stream crossed here is called Oak Beck (“Beck” is often used in Yorkshire for a small river or stream). In real life, this bridge is narrow and crossing-controlled by traffic lights to be one way. But we Zwifters get to roll on through.
This climb is part of a GPS-accurate re-creation of the finishing circuit for the 2019 UCI Worlds road race. In 2019 the men’s pro peloton raced up this climb 6 times after a 185km lead-in, but you’ll probably be happy with just one ascent.
