There's a link to the route on ridewithgps (with ability to download a GPX file) on the main Clifton website (under Scotton 100) for the 2014 route and the link to Cycleworks page says they will issue a GPX file the week before. If you fancy a test ride on Sunday I'll be up for joining you, weather and time depending.
Only thing to note is there are a couple of sections that are private and only open on the event itself but should be able to work around.
Anyway let me know re Sunday.
In terms of tyres its your choice. Most ride cx but 28mm should work fine . Risk is the usual pinch punctures which maybe slightly higher with 28s and the sandy section before Aldwark can be a bit more difficult. To be fair I've never made it that far with the front group and as I'm usually in damage limitation mode at the point i.e. just trying not to collapse, tyre choice is a moot at that point anyway!
