TdF in the Dales - Yorkshire Run Sept 25th
A few weeks ago I discovered this route online: http://www.cyclethedales.org.uk/tour...ales/the-route
http://www.cyclethedales.org.uk/rout...escription.pdf
It looked promising, but I couldn't tell from looking at the map and directions how long it would take, and if was as fun as it looked. Well, yesterday I drove the route and returned home with a huge grin on my face. If you too would like to have a huge grin on your face please sign up for this run!
The meeting point is the carpark of the Tesco Superstore in Skipton:
Craven St
Skipton
North Yorkshire
BD23 2AG
England
There is a petrol station at this store so you can fuel up as well as buying the spuds for your Sunday roast.
We need to leave Tesco at 10:00am and head north to Grassington for the start of the run. My expectation is that we will be back in Skipton around 4:00pm. We will stop in Reeth for lunch for an hour. It looked like a good place to park up and there are pubs and cafes there.
Click on the links above for a detailed description of the route and a map.
So, add your name to the thread if you're interested.

I reckon I should be able to get to this so put me down as well. Hopefully Martin can get as my co-pilot.

Oooh. That's an hour away from my Nan's house (Last of the Summer Wine country) and I haven't visited her in a year (yes I'm an awful Grandson) I could spend the Saturday with her then do this on Sunday. I'll get back to you see if she's around then.

Hi Anthony,
Absolutely gutted, but I can't make this!
I've got a stag do up in Newcastle the night before and am flying out to Hungary with work that day. (the early train from Newcastle to Manchester is going to hurt!!)
Have a great day out and I look forward to all the photos etc.
Cheers,
Tom

Hi Anthony,
Sorry but I can't make it either as I will be at an RAF Reunion. Thanks for putting the route up though, I might have a go some other time.
