A Pair of Kirtons

Description

604km cycling event starting from Poynton, S of Stockport, S of Stockport. Controls at Askern, Brough, Gainsborough, Boston, Corby Glen, Donington, Uttoxeter, Wem, Audlem and Poynton., plus 1 information control.

From Poynton over the Pennines to Yorkshire, over the Humber Bridge to Boston, then to Uttoxeter and Wem before returning to Poynton. Corby Glen village hall at 342km offers the chance for hot food and a nap.

An 'easy' 600 where the only challenge is the distance, at least there is no climbing worthy of AAA points. There are some steady climbs in the first 100km as you cross the Pennines, and it's a bit lumpy between Uttoxeter and Stone.

Accommodation is available on Friday night in the Church Hall - air beds and blankets supplied. Please let the Organiser know if you want to reserve you floor space.

Pay and Display Parking is available at Poynton.
