TOUR OF YORK 2020
A cycling adventure for the touring cyclists!
SUNDAY 23rd August 2020
Introduction
The 2020 Tour of York returns for the 9th year running with a established and proven course starting at Clackline with a stopover in York before proceeding to Greenhill Tavern as the turn point. A challenging Long Course of 133 km route which is a much-requested feature for touring / cyclosport if type cyclists looking for new challenges. In short Clackline-York-Greenhills-Clackline.
If the route of 133 km provides too long then you have the option of doing the Short Course, which is from Clackline-York-Clackline, with a stopover once again at York and this is a less challenging 88 km in distance.
The challenge for 2020 will be the same as in 2019 where you are invited to register yourself and a team up with up to five others as you will be permitted to have an accompanying Team Vehicle with you to support you for the distance regardless of whether you do the short course or long course.
Team or Individual Options
Think of your Team Vehicle as your own support vehicle just like the professionals do where all of your food / hydration / spares / wheels / change of clothes can be contained. Team may have Team Drivers who are PART of the team, which means you do rotations driving the vehicle along the way or assign ONE person who is not part of the Team to be the Team Driver. If the Team Driver is NOT a rider then they do not need to register.
A Team can therefore comprise of between two to six people RIDING with a Team Driver who is not riding or between two to four people riding with riders rotating as Team Drivers. Your social club / group or chapter are invited to have as many Teams as they wish as this will be a fun open country ride event.
Individual riders cannot have any Team Vehicles supporting them if they choose the individual option though they will also be supported by the Event Support Vehicles who are on route in the event of any emergencies.
