The weather looks good for the ...

Hope your well soon Steve. It could have been a lot worse.

Thanks Paul. I know, I could have damaged my bike :wink:


That route looks like a good one for next week, thanks Mike.

Last week's incident was nothing major, but I ended up leaving the road to avoid an oncoming car on a narrow bend. I ...

Hi all,
it's likely I won't be out this week, owing to sore ribs from last week's accident.

As the summer is coming to an end it seems a timely moment to emphasise that this is primarily a social ride, with just 2 simple golden rules:
1) Stick together (regroup on hills & check everyone is on at ...

Hi Sam. Thanks for getting in touch.
Yes, I'd recommend starting off with a 10.00 o'clock ride.
I'm not sure what pace the easy riders group go at the moment, but I'm sure if you turn up and talk to Dave or Kevin, they'll be able to advise on an appropriate group to start with.

You should then ...

Hi all,
a bit of a change to the flat loop last week.

This week we're off to the moors for a revisit of Wass Bank. It's a slightly longer route this time: about 57 miles. Planning to be back between 12.00 to 12.30.

Haxby- Pottery Lane- Sutton otF- Huby- Crayke- Coxwold- Wass Bank- Ampleforth (via ...

Sounds like just the thing to fill those Thursday evenings, now that the TT season is over.

Hi all,
here's something a little bit different for this week...

Bishopthorpe- Acaster Malbis- Acaster Selby- Appleton Roebuck- Tadcaster- Cattal- Whixley- Aldwark Bridge- Youlton- Alne- Easingwold- Huby- Sutton otF- Pottery Lane- Strensall- Haxby

It's a nice wide 54 mile loop, with no major hills ...

Hi all,
unfortunately I probably wont be out again this Saturday as I'm hoping to do the Fleak on Sunday. Anyhow, here's the suggested route:

Haxby- Strensall- Flaxton- Stittenham- Sheriff Hutton- Farlington- Stearsby- Brandsby- Yearsley (left to)- Easingwold- (left before Raskelf for) Tholthorpe ...

Hi Joe,
the 2 different paced groups have tended to depend on who turns up on the day, and overall numbers.

Allan was leading the steady group, but unfortunately hasn't been able to make it out for a few weeks.

If any one else is planning to do a steady ride, it would be useful if they posted on ...

Hi all,
as promised here is the suggested route for Saturday.

I'm afraid I won't be out as I'm off to Morecambe tomorrow for a leisurely coast to coast :)

Current forecast is warm, light breeze, possible light showers (don't blame me if it snows).

It's a 50 mile classic:

Stockton- Upper Helmsley ...

Although no one has come forward with a suggested route, I imagine the usual numbers will be turning out for the 8.45 ride.

There are enough well known 50 mile routes amongst the regular riders now. So an impromptu decision in the square looks in order.

Check back on the previously posted routes ...

Hi all,
it looks like I won't be out for the 8.45 next week.

Would anyone like to suggest a route?

Hi all,
it's the 'default' route this week.

Stockton otF- Sand Hutton- Upper Helmsley- Bossall- Howsham- Leavening- Birdsall- Malton- Coneysthorpe- Bulmer- Stittenham- Flaxton- Strensall- Haxby (48 miles)

Hi all,
a bit of variation this week.

Millington-Thixendale, anti-clockwise. A chance to go down Leavening bank :shock:

Stockton otF- Upper Helmsley (Right)-Stamford Bridge- Full Sutton- Gowthorpe- Youlthorpe- Bishop Wilton- Gt Givendale- Millington- Huggate (Left)- Cross A166 (caution ...
