Kind offer, thanks, but a little too much going on over the next  few days for me, although others may be interested. Family stuff this weekend and then the Welsh/Scottish trip Mon-Wed and the Dales next Saturday.
Do you have a regular meet from Wetherby? Hope the weather stays good and thanks for asking.

P.S. Just realised you're the RTer we met at Fridaythorpe last time out so we may meet up on the 24th. Have a good un this weekend.

The weather isn't looking too shabby for Saturday 24th June.

Please may I ask what level of interest there is in a proposed ride out & given a choice, where would you like to go?

Not promising for me at the moment unless back recovers from the Wales trip. Also other issues.

Hi David, Yes my friend and I will be out on Saturday but he will be working until mid morning so we might not be able to leave Wetherby at the time you guys are, We normally head up to Masham for a cuppa in the Marketplace and then to Leyburn Manor Cafe for a drink....if you're heading that way then we might be able to catch up with you at some point?

Thanks for your reply Andy. I'm sorry, but the ride would start from Wetherby at 10:30. The route is yet to be decided. Trying to meet up on route can become messy.

Based on the fact that Chris particularly wanted to do the Yorkshire Dales, if he is unavailable, this route will be put in the filing cabinet for another day.

However, if there is sufficient interest, I'm happy to lead a ride on Saturday 24th June leaving Wetherby at 10:30.

We could do the alternative North Lincolnshire route as posted within this thread.

A "show of hands" would be good, I'm not going to do it on my own or with very little interest, thanks.

Should the weather forecast for Sunday prove to be better than Saturday, are your clearance/approval certificates flexible or do they need to be renegotiated?

Should it be granted, will your approval be for Saturday, Sunday or either.
