Tour de Yorkshire 2016

[TheFunk]

Just like the TDF it goes past my road end here in Knaresborough. Unfortunately it's on a Friday though so no all day session this time.

I'm really looking forward to this. Surely the night before it wouldn't be beyond the wit of man to get a nice, big Rovers Viking chalked out on the route somewhere?

Route goes right by Belle Vue where better ?

Sprotborough Hairpin(s) would not be bad either !

I used to half kill myself going down  those S bends 40 years ago on my bike and usually ended up walking back up on the return journey (and cutting through the woods  even steeper but shorter )

A family member of mine had a really nasty accident coming down the hairpins, flew off his bike and in to a tree. Thankfully survived but was very ill.

This should drive a bit of tourism into the town, think it passes close by to us so will hopefully get to see a fair bit of it.

Best not plan to leave Sprotbrough that day me thinks
