There was an awful lot of people pushing bikes today. And I'd guess that at least 50% of the riders with red numbers near me at the split, decided that the extra 25k and 3 climbs on the long route were a step too far.
Talking to riders throughout the event, the word "unrelenting" kept being used. Several people commented that there was simply no let up in the constant climbing/descending..... Welcome to Yorkshire, we don't do flat round here.

Not sure, the right turn off the main road was closed whilst accident investigation team did their stuff. Apparently a rider and a car were involved, rider was hurt but no details.I stuck with it and those last three climbs were killers!
The whole course was super tough. "Unrelenting" would cover it.
What was the Wortley crash? Saw an ambulance / first responder flying towards Wortley.

They eventually turned us all round and detoured us through wortley top forge.
