Ironman UK reveals new bike course

The new bike route retains the initial point to point from Wigan to Horwich, however it now takes athletes east in a reversal to the previous version of the course. Athletes will head along Chorley New Road, passing transition located in Queen’s Park, and pass through the cobbles of Le Mans Crescent before heading to Ramsbottom fleeting past the Rake Climb.

From here competitors will continue north towards Helmshore and Blackburn, where athletes will enter the moorlands with views over Darwen’s Jubilee Tower and multiple reservoirs before descending Sheephouse Lane via Belmont, adding a new dimension to an athlete favourite.
