The 153km route starts and finishes just outside the historic market town of Beverley and will cover the best roads in the Yorkshire Wolds featuring many of the toughest climbs used in the East Yorkshire Classic and the 2006 and 2007 National Road Race Championships. Featured climbs include Life Hill (Sledmere), Fimber, Wharram Percy Wold, Birdsall Brow, Thixendale Wold, Hanging Grimston, Acklam Brow, Great Givendale and Nunburnholme. Don’t be fooled into thinking that with only 2600 meters of climbing that this will be an easy ride. The climbs come thick and fast especially in the middle third and with very little flat roads your legs will certainly know you’ve been on the Big G sportive. If you don’t believe me ask last year’s finishers how hard it was!/
