Evans Ride It Leeds Feb 13

[adamangler]

Started riding a few weeks ago and signed up for this. Currently doing 20 mile runs, so signed up for the medium length of 50 miles as something to train towards...just wondered if anyone else will be doing this run next feb or has anyone done it in the past and any idea what the course layout is like, ive heard some decent climbs on it!

You'll find a write-up of last years' here: http://www.cyclechat.net/threads/evan-ride-it-leeds-my-first-sportive.96452/

I'll be either doing this or the North-West Passage ride. I'd be doing the Long route, which is the same as the 50-mile Medium but with a bit added on.

For those wondering, the ride can be found at: http://www.evanscycles.com/ride-it/leeds-sportive-ride-24th-february-2013 and it's on Sat 23rd (MTB) and Sun 24th (road) Feb.

Looking at the Rochdale one on the 29th , but if the weather is to bad will wait a cpl of weeks and nip over the pennines to do this one.

Ps the Rochdale is actualy from Wardle and tends to go away from Rochdale which is never a bad thing.

Like @DiddlyDodds I'm the same with the North-West Passage. Last year's was in bad weather whereas the Evans ride was fine.
