High Wycombe CC's Hilly Time Trial in Pricess Risborough?

[Me]

Hi guys, anyone ridden in High Wycombe's CC's tuesdays night
timetrial out at Whiteleaf/whitecross above Princess
Risborough?

I've been told there is another one in two tuesday's time
but can't find any course directions. I'd like to do a reccy
in advance to see how i can cope.

I know it starts at the car park on the top of Whitecross /
Whiteleaf hill and know its two laps of 7 miles each but
thats about it.

If anyone can provide a link or email address to someone in
the High Wycombe club who could give me directions that
would be cool. I've left a couple messages through their
website but no replys so far :(

just a basic first left, right at t junction, up hill second
right type thing would be great.

All the best,

[Roger Hughes]

Well, I have no idea if I'm right, but if I were trying to
think of a seven mile circuit starting at the top of the
hill known variously as Whiteleaf, Monks or Peter's lane,
I would go south to the crossroads with the Lacey Green-
Hampden road, left through Great Hampden to the crossroads
with the road running up from Hughenden Valley, left down
to Rignall Road, left at the T-junction there
(carefully!), fork left over the back of Longdown and
descend to the mini roundabout where left to the foot of
Peter's Lane where left again up the hill to complete the
circuit. I strongly suspect that that is 7 miles. And I'd
want about 39 x 23 up the bigger climb if I were about as
fit as I was 15 years ago.

Any other circuit (except maybe a longer and flatter one
bypassing Longdown and going over by Chequers instead) would
seem to involve too many right turns and the like to be
reasonable for a club TT.

Cheers
