Hi,
A question for all of you out there. Where is the best place to train in the UK? The reason i ask this is because stupidly my club has asked me to ride in the national U23 RR, and i have agreed. I come back from france on the 27th June and the race is on the 11th July. i will be training hard in the pyrenees and need to continue in this country! but where? The RR is in north wales, so lots of hills(which i like!). Would somewhere like Yorkshire be anygood? Thanks |

Yesterday I was up around Chipping and Clitheroe, in North Lancashire. Some pretty tough climbs around there. Also there's a place called Chaigley which is hell. |

The best road racers generally come from Yorkshire, and the Peak District. Its noticable that the road racing in the south is a bit easier than in the North. So try the Peak District, there will be loads of people to train with too. |
