Route announced today: http://letour.yorkshire.com/
Day 1: Bridlington to Scarboro
Day 2: Tadcaster to Harrogate (Womens and Mens)
Day 3: Bradford to Fox Valley
Holden Lane and Shibden Wall on an epic Day 3 - let's hope for a little rain 😯
The bike shop at Fox Valley will have a busy day!
Fox Valley - Yorkshire's new go to pound shop and vaping destination (and of course Full Gas Bikes).
Wot no Holme Moss though. For stage 3, shall probably head up to the steep left hander on Dunford Road just below Hade Edge.
Fox Valley, the posh Stocksbridge
Dear "Tour de Yorkshire" organisers,
The word you're looking for is [b][i]of[/i][/b], I would also accept [b][i]a'[/i][/b], but not [b][i]t'[/i][/b].
Yours sincerely,
A non-French Yorkshireman.
We're part of EU - it's [b]de[/b]
Why rest at one continental affectation?
Call it the Vuelta de Yorkshiria for 2018, I say.
Have you noticed how the official map makes Yorkshire look a very similar shape to France too...
Fox valley, proof that you can't Polish a turd
S3 is going right past my house! Well, one road over really but I could watch from my doorstep. I'll probably head over Strines way to watch somewhere on the finish circuit though.
I quite like the "de", I bet it gets up the noses of our local 'kippers almost much as having their roads closed for a push-bike race.
Back in Harrogate, if you look closely you can still see the outline where Mark went down (someone spray canned an outline just outside Betties)
We will no doubt be there to see them on the Stray.
Nice one, I'll be riding down to Whitby for a look.
Goes right past my sister's house, I've already told her I will be staying over that weekend!
Shibdon Wall?
Yikes. I've ridden up that. It's difficult to drive up never mind cycle.
Aye Shibden wall is a nasty climb, should be good to watch that bit.
Ooh, stage 1 is going through my town!
Might have to take a day off work and ride over to the top of Garrowby. Never attempted it myself 😯
