About the Event

Info for Riders

The 160Km route starts and finishes in 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 &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. This year we have introduced a new Mini G which is designed for novice cyclists who want to take part in the event but don’t feel ready to take on the challenge of the longer routes. Participants will get the same quality service that riders in the longer events enjoy apart from the post ride meal.
