When we set the date for this we checked with other local cycling clubs to make sure we weren't clashing with other events, but completely forgot about the Kop Hill Climb.

Very big thanks to one of the riders for pointing out that we would clash with it.  There is a road closure for it so we need to re-route. The attached files / links give the revised route with the long and medium routes going up Pink Hill instead, while the short route will go up Whiteleaf.  All of the routes now go through Princes Risborough - which adds more cafe / resupply options - and also adds a couple more km and slightly more climbing.  

We're still going past the ends of Kop Hill.  The climb should be quite a spectacle, with lots of old cars charging up the hill.  However there is bound to be a bit more traffic at either end of the hill, so be prepared for that.

Revised routes, GPX attached + links:

See you on Sunday,
