Bronte country and Wharfedale ride.

Steve GT

I know its short notice, but I am planning a ride and invite anyone to join me.

When: Sunday 5th October 2008 – starting at 09:30.

Start point : Menston Railway Station.

Route : Menston, Bingley, Harden, Haworth, Elslack, Gargrave, Hetton, Burnsall, Bolton Abbey, Beamsley, Ilkley, Askwith, Otley and back to Menston.

Around 63 miles with quite a bit of climbing, especially at the beginning.

Any takers?

It sounds good Steve, but unfortunately it clashes with Season of Mists which I've already signed up to do.

I'm interested. I've been in Ilkley for a while now but haven't really explored anywhere south of the A65 so this sounds good. As far as I'm aware there isn't a piss-up the night before either, so I should actually turn up!

BR automatically changes 'p**s' to 'wee-wee'! How twee...

That will great. It's a very nice route, weather permitting, although you will be very familiar with the return leg from Burnsall.
My default ride on Sunday mornings when I cannot be bothered to think of somewhere else to to go, is from Menston to Burnsall for coffee and tea cake at the 2 sisters cafe in Burnsall - I may have passed you often on a Sunday morning!

Sorry Fraser, I cannot make it on the Saturday.
We also would not be back by 1200 on the Sunday.

Due to the bad weather and me having a bit of a cold and sore throat, the ride is off.
Sorry.

No worries Steve, might go for a ride round that way anyway. Get well soon!
