Letchworth #1338 Pro
This is the longest test route at the Letchworth centre, covering roughly 14.6 miles in about 46 minutes over a single stage, and the only one that reaches 70 mph. It links Phoenix Park Estate, Lordship Estate, Clothall Common, Radwell and Stotfold. With 18 roundabouts, far more than any other route here, plus 12 traffic light junctions, it is a stamina test across a wide 20 to 70 mph spread.
Watch Out For
- Eighteen roundabouts, by far the most here; plan lanes early, give way to the right and signal left on exit.
- The 70 mph dual carriageway pace, unique to this route.
- A school zone with a reduced limit and children near the roadside.
Route Features
- London Road and the open sections carry the fastest driving.
- Letchworth Gate and Baldock Lane return you toward the estates.
Test Manoeuvres
- A pull up on the left near the start point.
Key Tips
- Pace your energy over the long distance and settle speed early on the 70 mph section.
