The route, on course F14/25, sees the 52-rider field start on the Wrestlingworth-Guilden Morden Road before proceeding south to Guilden Morden and turning left towards Singay cum Wendy, then bearing left onto the roundabout and left again to Tadlow and the crossroads at Wrestlingworth, on towards Guilden Morden, past the start and then repeating the circuit to finish south of the farm entrance.

Storey, 30, rode to his first victory of the season after a second place at the VTTA (Kent group), a third at Finsbury Park CC and another third at Southern Counties CU on May 14.
