For those of you that think just one National Park per ride is simply not enough, this is the ride for you.

Takes in the Yorkshire Dales NP via Park Rash and the North York Moors NP via Boltby Bank. c230km

Two cafe stops. Earlier start - meet at the Square @ 8am.

See you in The Square!

Just to add - this is the next ride in the Challenge Series. 2 or 3 points? - your call Andrew, what do you reckon?

Well, we decided, out on the road, that this was a 3-pointer. We also thought that Andrew was deserving of a bonus point for the effort he'd put into devising and leading a cracking route. Quiet lanes, loads of cyclists out. Two monumental climbs - Park Rash and Boltby, the latter scaled with 170km in the legs. 227km, 2400m of climb, door to door in 10.5 hours, it even stayed dry for us. Thanks to AndrewL, AndyG and JonnyB for company.
