Carl,
Assuming it’s the same route as last year it goes up Oving, Whiteleaf, a couple more that I don’t know the name of then the Crong. It avoids Toms Hill and Bison, going up the Beacon and up past the Whipsnade Golf club instead.
I have mixed views about doing an event on your local roads. It does seem a bit bizarre paying to ride your local roads but I like to think I am paying for the experience and the chance to test myself.
I’d imagine we’ll be riding some of those roads on Sunday and I’m not going to go the other way to avoid riders taking part if I see any.
Might stop off at Mentmore though as they hold a barbecue which is very tasty.
P.S. You are welcome to tag along with us (just me & Rich) on Sunday if you want – no charge 🙂
