In the Peak District on Sunday 2 August 2009
Phil Liggett, TV's voice of cyling, challenges you to take part in this year's ride on Sunday 2 August 2009. Starting in Sheffield on the edge of the Peak District, the ride is accessible via public transport.
The routes for this year's rides will be similar to last year's: the classic 150km route, with over 2600m of climbing, including the fearsome Peak District climbs of Holme Moss, Winnats Pass and Monsal Head and the 100km which takes in Holme Moss. At the same time as treating riders to some stunning scenery, the ride raises much needed funds for CTC’s campaigning work.
This year, the event starts from the Lomas Hall, Stannington, Sheffield, S6 6DB. (NB Wood Lane Countryside Centre is no longer available) and Phil Liggett, fresh from commentating on the Tour de France, is attending in person this year.
All participants will receive certificates if they wish and have the opportunity to purchase a commemorative T-shirt on the day (or these can be ordered in advance).
