WTRL #95 – Greater London Flat
Course Notes – 2 Laps + Lead-In – 28.9km
One of the flattest courses to be ridden in a while. The only significant ‘climb’ appears once during the Lead-In, as you turn right off the Embankment and head up to Trafalgar Sq. This comes at about 3.5km
Outside of this incline and a couple of rises out of tunnels, you should be able to safely carry out turns on the front, fully utilising a TTT rotation.
Try to keep the team together for at least the first lap, but you may wish to go without if a split occurs at either of the short inclines that come at 25.3km and 26.8km
