The Fleak?

Post by Dr Dave »

This is listed as an event qualifying for the challenge series. Anyone know what it is?

The Fleak is an exposed climb running from Low Row in Swaledale to near Askrigg in Wensleydale. Out through Leyburn and Grinton Moor, The Fleak, then back down Wensleydale.

Thanks Rob, I know the road - didn't know it was so named.

Wow, one of my favourite climbs. You would be extremely unlucky to encounter a vehicle of any sort on it, enjoy.

As I'm no longer free to lead this ride on the original published date of 8th September, I'm proposing to bring it forward a week - Sunday 1st September. Hope that's not a problem to anyone.....

An early start of 0800 would be prudent.
