BroomWagon - I trust you are still riding round though? I've been off bike for four weeks but am planning on at least trundling as far as Masham.

I intend to do it but due to the distance it will be at quite a steady pace, any others??

Have a good ride everyone. Will have to sit this one out this year as I'm working at the Leeds Festival over the weekend. Hope to be out the following week though. :)

I'd like a steady and sociable ride out Ian, it might be a quick toasted teacake and brisk ride back for me though, I need to get back home with a few hours of daylight left. I'm happy to ride back on my own.

Hi Tim

I would say it will take 30/40 minutes from Shipton so around 08.30

THere's a good group of Cycleworks guys planning to be off sharp at 8am - I'm sure they will take a max of 30 mins to get there and should be good for a tow until they hit a cafe...

Put plenty of food in your pockets, and a couple of spare tubes.

Cracking day out today guys. Really enjoyed it. Thanks for putting it on and great scram at the end.

Yes, fab ride, really enjoyed the down bits, suffered on the flat bits into the wind and the uppy bits, but loved it all. Looks like Tan Hill Tom is on the look out for a new pair of forks and bike frame but, thankfully, at least he's fine, considering.
