The ride today was called off due to the weather gods.

David is offering to put a ride together for next week the 22nd. You'd be very welcome.

Yes, providing there is sufficient interest, the weather plays ball, my finger is fixed & fit to ride, I'll consider leading a ride out next Saturday 22nd July 2017.

(Looking back at this thread, most of the regulars are not available.)

Please post if you are interested/available, thanks.

For a change, was thinking of heading to the North York Moors, anyone else fancy that.

If so, I'd be heading for home from Thirsk, not going back to Wetherby.

As usual, a copy of the route is available via email.

Ill have a bit of that,


Depending on others home location and the time we depart Thirsk,  I may head back home via Skipton and Clitheroe as nothing in it on mileage and only 40mins additional time.

Sorry guys, I'm going to have to postpone the ride out on the 22nd, still got "finger trouble".

Will look at it again for Saturday 29th, weather & finger permitting.

If anyone else would like to arrange a ride out, that's fine with me.

Routes can be provided upon request.

Looking at the forecast for tomorrow (Saturday 22nd) the enforced postponement might not be such a bad thing after all.

Is anyone interested/available for a ride out on Saturday 29th.

Yes, there will be, I'll start a new thread.

We haven't had a day ride in July yet, although a fair number did attend the Tewkesbury weekend at the beginning of the month.

Are we to scratch the idea of a ride out this coming weekend, 29th/30th.

The weather forecast for tomorrow, Saturday 29th July looks good, is there any interest in a ride out for the day, was thinking of the North York Moors.

Starting from Morrisons Café, Wetherby at 10:30 & finishing at Thirsk, approx. 120 miles in a BaseCamp riding time of just over 3 hours,
plus P&T stops at Hovingham, Sleights & near Helmsley.

If required, the proposed route is available via email.

A decision will be made based on the level of interest shown.
