The Event

For the 2010 race we have designed an exciting new circuit in conjunction with Blackpool Council. The 900m route is right in the heart of the town with a spectacular start / finish area adjacent the famous Winter Gardens in St John Square.

 

2010 Course

 

The circuit will run through Birley Street taking the riders through the spectacular Brilliance Light Show (see image below) - the laser show and music will light up the action particularly in the darkness of the Elite Criterium.

The route is clockwise taking the riders up Church Street to a u-turn and fast descent down Church Street to Corporattion Street. The circuit then turns up Birley Street through a technical chicane that befoer a sprint to the line.

 

With close proximity to the cafes and restaurants in the town centre there will be plenty of food and entertainment to enhance the festival atmosphere.
