The planned route for our first training weekend can now be viewed below. At 114km the route should give us a good gauge of what our current fitness levels are at as well as providing us all with a short term target for which to train for. The route follows stages of the trans pennine trail and will be a suitable surface for touring bikes making it as realistic as possible to the sort of terrain we will be encountering this summer. The profile of the route is in our favour with the longest climb being right at the start and the final 8km or so being a descent back in to Sheffield. With our departure date being just under two weeks, the whole team is looking forward to what will have been the first time we have all been together since the selection weekend.
