    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.
