150km Over the Wolds to Flamborough Head

Description

157km cycling event starting from Stamford Bridge, Near York. Controls at Flamborough Head Open Control and Stamford Bridge Village Hall., plus 5 information controls.

This ride takes in some quiet lanes around the Yorkshire Wolds, starting from historic Stamford Bridge, and passing through Bridlington Old Town, before reaching Flamborough Head (Control).

Good views on quiet lanes on the Yorkshire Wolds without any really steep climbs. Cake and drinks available at the finish. 1 open control at Headlands Cafe at Flamborough Head. Other optional cafe stops on the route at Hutton Cranswick, Burton Agnes Hall and Flamborough Village (slightly off route). Pub at Weaverthorpe. 5 further information controls.
Please note that there are changes to the route from previous years, due to the closure of the road from Skerne to Wansford. This has increased the distance slightly.

There are events around the Forest of Bowland the following day, organised by another person. You might like to double up with a North of England Audax weekend!
