ProMasters Series: Round 4

The Circuit of the Wolds

Race distance of 125km. 

Climbing 1200m

7.5 laps of the Hainton – Ludford Loop circuit in Lincolnshire. 

This is a 16.58 km circuit in Market Rasen, United Kingdom. Each lap has a total ascent of 160.89 m and has a maximum elevation of 142.0 m.

This deceptive course on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds AONB which is rolling and fast in parts, but features climbs that pack a punch and will take their toll as the race distance bites...A race distance of 125km and over 1200m of climbing makes this a course for the strong.

We considered calling this the event Wolds Earthquake GP when we read this on the Ludford village website…

The Earthquake in 2008

On 27 February 2008 at 00.26 Ludford was shaken by an earthquake measuring 5.2 on the richter scale. The earthquake was reported nationally as having its epicentre in Market Rasen.

However the location was later reported as being approximately 4 miles east of Market Rasen i.e.in Ludford.   Luckily there was no damage within the village.

To commemorate the event the White Hart Inn commissioned a beer from a local microbrewery called Epicentre with an ABV of 5.2% to match the earthquake’s magnitude
