Hi Everyone,

As you know we’re currently in the middle of promoting The Macc Monster, our October Sportive, but I’ve just been looking into the possibility of a new Cycle Sportive in Northumberland.

Seeing as you are connoisseurs of the open road, I thought I’d run it by you and see what you think.
I’d be thinking about April/May time so hopefully the weather would behave itself but not be too hot!

I was thinking a kind of “Castles and Coasts route”.
I’ve knocked it up as best I can on these two sites.

It’s a bit of a rough draft at the moment, but it takes in some great scenery and landmarks.
I’m not sure of the logistics of it all yet.

It would most likely be £20 or £25 again to take part.
Probably £20 though.

Does that look like something you might be interested in?
Thanks again for your help.

Hi All,

I've changed the route again in order to get around the A1 without actually having to cross it.
There is an underpass for one section and a bridge over it for another.

What do you think?
