PLEASE NOTE THIS IS THE 2005 ROUTE provided for reference only.

This is the full route in Acrobat format.

The route uses minor roads where poss, which, in Britain, are not numbered.
We are not permitted to erect signs or mark the road surface.
Therefore a routesheet, or cuesheet, describing the route is given to each rider.
It gives instructions on where to turn, eg 2nd left, how far to the next instruction, and what kind of road to expect, eg minor road.

This Route Sheet is, basically the final version of the 2005 route,
there are no significant changes expected between the Start and Ancaster (about 190km)
but then the 2009 route will differ especially around Lincoln and around Coxwold, maybe also elsewhere.
Entrants will receive a hardcopy of the final version in their Entry Pack.
