Mr Frost, if we set off at 830am, we'll be well past Ripon by 915!!

I was banking on us never setting off on time since we never do and it's at least 40 mins to ripon so I don't think too far off.

Hoping to join you for this. I'll ride to West Tanfield (closest point to me) and then ride towards Ripon (I'm assuming you'll just use the main road) until I find you.

Usually, take back road via Hutton Conyers/ Wath, so best head down Tanfield Lane towards Wath.

On second thoughts, I'll stay on the Masham side of Tanfield if I need to keep warm - that way you can take either road from Ripon, as the back road might be a bit sketchy first thing.

Yes good day and good turn out. My legs were toast on the way back. Was fantastic to get a big route done in February! Will start planning alternatively reliable for 2017...
