    moved to routes as you are asking where to ride (routes) and not organizing a ride.

    I'm assuimng that you're a road cyclist, if not then this prob. wont interest you...

    The road from Kettlewell to Hawes is a belter. If you go from one to the other and then back I doubt that you'd be disappointed, though the hill over the top at Oughtershaw is a real swine! Steep and long; make sure your brakes work for when you go over the top towards Hawes too!

    Also, the Malham area is stunning, if you go towards Arncliffe from Kettlewell and then up towards Malham you'll see some beautiful scenery. Make sure that you are fully prepared though as there's not much up there in the way of people or help if you break down.

    Other than that just get yourself exploring, you wont go far wrong!
