Fancy testing yourself opposite a top-ten Tour de France finisher or a U23 European Time Trial Champ? Take to the saddle at the Colomba Chemo Classic in Richmond, North Yorkshire and relish the opportunity to ride with (against?) both Ben Swift and fellow Sky team mate Alex Dowsett across 65 miles of “undulating” northern dales terrain Passing through, Leyburn, Middleham, Kettlewell, Buckden, Cray, Thoralby, Aysgarth, Redmire, and Grinton (phew!). Entry is just £15 and a fund-raising charity dinner and auction is also organised complete with the opportunity to quiz both Swift and Dowsett. Race HQ is at Richmond Cricket Club (click here for map) with riders setting off between 8 and 9.30am. Further details and online entry are available at www.colombachemoclassic.org.uk
