Howardian Hills Highlights -Sunday 22nd May 10.30am
Something local, and something slightly different for our first weekend club ride in a while.
I thought we'd try combining the best bits of Castle Howard and Yearsley together.
Meet at 10.30am at the Coneysthorpe parking area opposite the lake at Castle Howard.
Please do post here if you're ...

Re: Weekend rides - day preference?
Thanks Dave, Steve and Chris for the feedback.
Good to know Wednesday rides still going well, even with fewer riders than previously.
May join you for the September Lakes trip, just need to check my schedule.
Chris - congratulations and all the best for the wedding.

Weekend rides - day preference?
Hi all,
Just thought I'd ask whether there was any preference on which day (Saturday or Sunday) would be best for everyone.
Thinking Saturday may be preferable as not too many riders on the last two Sunday rides?
Regards,
Jez

Re: Sunday's Club Ride - Goathland Loop
Hi Ros, glad you can make it.
Fair point on the weather, but surely it won't be too different from the glorious sunshine currently blessing us right now
Just about to give my bike the once over myself.

Hi all,
So the plan is to ride on Sunday as in fact the weather will pretty much be as good as Saturday if not hotter.
I've decided on this occasion for us to ride the familiar Goathland route that starts from Hole of Horcum going out to Goathland and returning via Flyingdales.
