CX Spotive & Etape Pennines This Weekend

This is a new Cyclo Cross Event for the North, Sunday 6th October and looks like a right good hard route as well. There are two different distances / routes on the day, Massif 62 miles and Min Massif 44 miles - both leaving from the beautiful town of Keswick. Full information on the event is here and on line entry is here from a very reasonable £25. The route map is below as well.
Also this Sunday is the BIGGEST Cycling Event taking place in Co Durham Etape Pennines. There will be loads of local roads closed for the event and starts / finishes in Barnard Castle this year. Full info here and full route map here
