This was stage 4 of the Tour of Tameside. https://www.sportstoursinternational.co.uk/events/tour-tameside-hyde-7/ Starting outside Hyde Town Hall this 7 mile road race went straight up Market Street before turning left onto Mottram Old Road and past the Ken Ward Leisure Centre in Hattersley and left onto Mottram Road; then Grange Road North near Hyde United and past Hyde Leisure Pool and up Lumn Road before turning back onto Market Street and down to the finish outside Hyde Town Hall.
