2019 Worlds RR Course Recon

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrYx-VPlakI

Matt Stephens does recon of the course. Looks pretty epic, especially if the weather is bad. Some really exposed sections, and an interesting final circuit.

Thanks for sharing. I've actually been looking for a detailed elevation map of the finishing circuit. From what I can find (basically, strava segments around Harrogate), the hills aren't that brutal; however, the roads and narrow and sinuous, and it'll be hard to control.

The CX-turned-road racers should do well here.

Reminds me of the circuit races in the DC suburbs.
