Structured Group Ride - Saturday, 5th Aug

Post by neilm » Tue Aug 01, 2017 10:34 pm

This week's structured ride heads out via Boroughbridge, Hutton Sessay and Kilburn stopping at the fine Old Barn Cafe at Bagby. We will return via Topcliffe and Cundall. Around 80 km in total with the coffee & cake stop at the half way point.

There is the option to do an added loop past Byland Abbey and through Oldstead which adds another 10 km but we'll only do that if everyone is happy to.

As usual there is a 9:00 meet at the Empress pub for anyone coming from Harrogate and head down to meet the rest at 9.15 in Knaresborough on the corner of Tentergate Lane and Boroughbridge Road, opposite the Texaco garage. If you happen to be the only one at the Empress, just head straight down to Knaresborough, as most people tend to head straight there.

The format will be the same as they have been to date i.e. riding as a structured group. The group tends to ride at approx 25-28kph dependent on the terrain (15.5 mph - 17.5mph). We usually have a good group of 10 - 12 out on most rides (despite few people posting to say they are going to turn up ;) ) so please post if you are planning to ride so that I know to wait for you if you're late.

Hope to see you

Neil
