Please note: There will be no entries on the day. The ride is now full

Just a few extra pieces of information for Saturday.

Most importantly we recommend you ride very carefully especially the downhill sections, some of which are VERY steep.

HQ
The event HQ and start/finish will open at 7:45am at Richmondshire Cricket Club.
Hurgill Road
Richmond
North Yorkshire
DL10 4AR

There are changing facilities and a communal shower available. Free tea and coffee are available at the start/finish and also at the feed station at Thoralby. The feed station is about 37 miles around so it is probably worth packing a couple of energy bars to keep you going until you get there. Food will also be provided at the finish.

PARKING
There is a large pay and display car park immediately opposite. I would recommend parking in bays only as we have one of the most efficient traffic wardens in the country and several people last year fell foul and received tickets.
Free Overflow parking is available at Richmond School, Darlington Road, DL10 7BQ. If you are arriving from Scotch corner then this is the third on the left as you enter Richmond. It is the one with the large 'Richmond School' emblazoned on the end and the building works. If you get to the crossing you have gone too far. The changing rooms here will open at nine and close at five and there are plenty of shower facilities. It is only about 0.75 miles to the start at the Cricket Club from here.
Please do not park in the small cricket club car park as this will be needed for event vehicles and medics etc.

POSSIBLE CHANGE TO ROUTE
One section of the route climbing from Grinton to Marske has been having some road works done. These are due to be finished by Friday but if for some reason they are not then the route will go straight down the dale and turn left a little later. It will be clearly signed if this is the case.

CHARITY RAFFLE
There will be charity raffle tickets available after the ride for some of the items initially intended to be at the auction during the meal. These include a pair of Ben Swift's Oakley Sunglasses and the skinsuit that Alex Dowsett won this year's British Championships in.
