Cycling bosses agree on reforms to WorldTour from 2017"The agreement will allow new races to join the top series and provide teams with three-year licence guarantees. The application process for races to join the WorldTour series, currently with 27 events, will begin immediately. Organisers may apply for their event to join the 2017 calendar. If granted, they will be included for a three-year period. The RideLondon-Surrey Classic in August has been rumoured to be among the new races applying. So too have races in the US and Middle East stage races the Tour of Qatar, Tour of Oman in February, and the Abu Dhabi Tour in October." www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/latest-news/cycling-bosses-agree-on-reforms-to-worldtour-from-2017-203095

The route for the Tour de Yorkshire 2016 was announced today. Some familiar local roads on stage 3. Sutton Bank should be interesting. I've had trouble getting up there in a car.

I don't think it will pose too many problems for the pro's to be honest. It's only a short climb and not that steep over its length. Early on in the stage too. www.strava.com/segments/1703615
