The London course’s “Classique” route takes you on some of the most famous London streets including Strand, The Mall, Constitution Hill, and Birdcage Walk. You ride by Trafalgar Square and Buckingham Palace.
It is a precise replica of the Prudential RideLondon Classique route, which is described as “beginning on The Mall in St James’s Park, going up Constitution Hill, turning at the top to come down and on to Birdcage Walk, then passing Big Ben and turning left on to Whitehall and right on to the Strand before turning again to come back up the Strand, through Trafalgar Square, Admiralty Arch and back on to The Mall.”
RACE TACTICS:
Another predicted bunch sprint where riders will be wanting to save those aero power-ups if they get them.
ABOUT THE LAMBCHOP
Lambchop is a unique handicap format where everyone can get involved. The Chop' is a handicap race which means people are grouped by skill and staggered, with slower riders taking off first. This gives everyone in every grade a chance to be there racing at the finish. So get your racing strategy dialed and be precise with your PowerUps near the finish line. If you have no idea what that means, then just ride harder.
UNLOCK THE KIT
Complete any of the six races to score the new Racing Club kit in-game, and access to an exclusive Black Sheep kit in the real world. Or maybe the real world is actually virtual, and we are actually just a bunch of avatars riding up volcanos! Mindblown.
PRIZES
No prizes. But a higher FTP maybe your reward for your performance.
IS THIS A RACE?
Yes. Not of individual glory, but rather one based on the strengths of a well-working group. Anyone from any ability has a shot at winning, and the pace of the race means everyone gets a great workout. Give it a try!
