Durham Big Rides 2013

[keyop_75]

I have signed up for Durham Big Ride 2013, specifically The Beast on September 8th.
The link on the website that should provide route details does not seem to work properly so if anyone local has any experience of this from previous years and can enlighten me as to the exact route I would appreciate it.

Cheers.

Hi I signed up for the beast yesterday its 54 miles with some very big hills, it starts at framwellgate moor then heads up to consett then tow law, wolsingham, a word of warning i have been up some of the hills and they are hard. this is my first ride that i have signed up for and am looking forward to it, they rated this ride 9/10 for difficulty

I have done some of the hills that they used last year. I work round the Esh area. The bank from Waterhouses past the Equestrian Centre towards Cornsay Colliery was steep. But that is part of the fun.
