Christmas ride out

Post by Mantis » Thu Dec 15, 2016 12:30 pm

I'm intending on going to Howstean for the ride out this Sunday and would like to combine it with a decent sized ride, so have come up with the following route:

https://www.strava.com/routes/7192608

Its 50 miles from Harrogate to Howstean - flat for the first 30 miles with the usual lumps at the end. Then its a smash down the valley after lunch, so probably a 65 miles ish ride in total. Meet Prologue 9am with a view to getting to Howstean for 12ish.

I know there are a few who can't make the whole day, so there is the option of turning left at Healey into Masham and straight back from there for those that need to be back a bit earlier.

Please post if you're in!

Sounds good, I'll join you.

I can't do lunch either but I'll ride out with you for the "flat for the first 30 miles" bit and head back home from Healey.

Cheers Rob

Is there a ride on tomorrow morning as usual as well or is it Sunday instead?
