An 18.8km course over four laps, on a tringular shaped circuit. The first 3.4km of each 4.6km lap is mainly downhill but the last 1.2km of each lap is uphill.
Nick Greenhalgh will actually be looking forward to this one, as he currently holds the real life KOM on Strava for the climb up Joel Street to the finish! We wonder his outdoor time can be matched in this race? The time to beat is 2 minutes 34 seconds, and if Caroline (or any other lady) wants to become QOM she should be looking at 3 minutes 13.
We suspect that this route will be decided by attacks on Joel Street on each of the four laps … you may want to watch the real life preview video below. This race is slightly longer than usual at 18.8km …
