Was going to be a bit controversial and suggest we head 'East' again (gasps of astonishment all round) . Logic being that racing season not too far away now and out of the 4 routes we do it's the hilliest and I think there is some sense in incorporating a few lumps on a ride this time of year. Hoping that there is an appetite (in a few weeks) to start doing the laps of Bishopwood and Escrick that we usually do to hone our speed ( ) in time for the races and they're flat circuits. But, it sounded like a request on the other thread so happy to go 'South'....We haven't been that way for while. Feel free to balance a spirit level on your handlebars to see how flat it is ...Actually, I always find it a surprisingly tough route especially if its windy which it looks like it may well be on Saturday...So:
York, Elvington, south to Howden, Hemingbrough, Skipwith, Thorganby, Wheldrake, Escrick, Stillingfleet, Naburn, and back to York.
Meet at Square to head out for 9.00
