This year's Tour de Yorkshire cycle race route has today been revealed.
The event will see hundreds of international cyclists racing through East Riding and Yorkshire, finishing in Leeds.
Entrants will set off from Bridlington on May 1, heading out on a 174km ride to Scarborough, via Flamborough Head, the North York Moors National Park, through Dalby Forest, Pickering, Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay.
The second stage, on May 2, will start at Selby Abbey before heading back into East Yorkshire, over the Wolds towards via Market Weighton, North Newbald, Beverley, Cherry Burton, Wetwang, Malton and Stamford Bridge, before completing a circuit of York.
The race will finish on May 3, when the peloton will make a return to some of the West Yorkshire roads raced in the 2014 Grand Départ and will finish in Roundhay Park, Leeds.
Gary Verity, the chief executive of Welcome to Yorkshire said: "Before the Grand Départ had even finished people all across Yorkshire were asking when we can have more cycling.
"The Tour de Yorkshire will bring back many of the world's top cycling teams and there will be an opportunity for ordinary people to ride the same roads on the same day in the sportive.
"This is a free event to watch so there is an opportunity for everyone in the county to be part of Tour de Yorkshire in one way or another."
Welcome to Yorkshire is also organising a month-long Tour de Yorkshire Festival to showcase its cultural offering.
