Chiltern Classic Sportive what's the correct route?

[Herman Toothrot]

So route maps are different on Wiggle and Ukcycling. The description for both is all in the Chilterns taking in Stoke Row etc which is why I entered its all quiet roads and lots of hills where I live and I thought it's be great to ride my local roads in an organised event. However Ukcycling events map shows the same start and finish in the Chilterns but the majority of the rides a crap trek out to the desolate flatlands of North Oxfordshire towards Bicester. Quite a contrast to the route map shown on Wiggle. Anyone know which is correct?

I've asked on wiggle but no response.

Dunno if this helps? http://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/53027532...

My trace from last year.. (most of it): the gps cr*pped out, 20k on a rim with a blown sidewall, torrential rain, gravel and the odd flood to the bottom bracket, crashes and more punctures than you can shake a stick at..

That's what i class as the good route, hope it's not a case of them changing it this year but not fully updating the websites. Ridden some of the Wycombe side this weekend just gone and sure the roads are full of pot holes / gravel / moss in the middle of some sections but that's all part of the fun :-)

Well it's the flat route for the Chiltern Classic out toward Oxford, straight out of the Chilterns, still going to do it though. Anyone else riding?
