Organiser's Description
Now in its second year, the Autumn Skylark Sportive is a journey through the South Pennine uplands, until recently a relatively unheralded area for cycling. However, thanks to the 2014 Tour de France’s visit to the area, it is well and truly on the map, both as a place to cycle and also as a place to enjoy for its unique mixture of windswept moorlands, quiet country lanes, tiny villages and attractive towns, full of historical buildings and atmospheric remains of the industrial revolution. Three routes - 115k, 80k and 50k - full of spectacular scenery and roads.
