Spurn Head, 16th June

Just an early "heads up."
Our biannual jaunt to the end of the world (well, end of Yorkshire). Obviously this is a very long ride! That said, its mostly pretty flat and with some disciplined group riding it's a fairly accessible ride. More interesting than you'd probably think too. An early traverse of the southern Wolds, brunch at the sea side, coast road down to the point (including the infamous concrete waffle - the enfer du est), the wilds of Sunk Island, Hull Docklands (including riding across a wharehouse roof) and then the push home in the early evening light.
160 miles (ish, depending how many times I get us lost)
0730 start.
Two cafe strategy - stuff some carbo in your pockets as well.

not sure about the bits around the docklands though when it looks like the purple line goes through the middle of no where which in actual fact means over bridges, staircases and indeed warehouse roofs and even through some broken glass
