How far from north riding is it? is it worth doing?

Yes, well worth the trip.

This has turned out to be one of my favourite small races. They usually run it 3 to 4 times a year, its not expensive either.

The route starts off with some rolling climbs and then flattens out for a good grind.

there and back route, you can expect wind to make things interesting, either before or after the turn. The road is quiet, and condition is fairly good.

Usually the youngsters attack hard at the start, and if you can keep up its a great training race, with very little place to hide as you are pedalling most of the time. The final 15km sees you riding the climbs back to the start, good tactical fun.

Always lots of coke at the finish
