The biggest cycling event hits Co Durham this weekend. The etape event village is open at Ushaw College just outside Bearpark. The 78 mile route has some classic steep climbs in over Weardale and forecast is looking good. Good luck to any NECCL riders who have entered. It will also be fantastic to watch, check out the route map here http://www.etapepennines.co.uk/coursemaps.html
Well done to the 1327 finishers, fastest riders came across the line in 4.07.25 and the last rider was 9.22.57 with only 78 DNF’s. Could not have asked for any better weather, fantastic day
