Hiya,
Anyone know if you can reuse the toll ticket for the toll road more than once on the same day?
I ask as my Hubby and I are going to Dalby later this month but he's not fit enough to do the whole Dalby red route so he wants to o off to Pickering or Scarborough to take some photos, but we don't want to have to pay £7 twice, once to drop me off then for him to return to pick me up after.
Anyone with any info would be great, as I can find naff all about it on the forestry website.
Many thanks

    I'm 100% sure it's a day pass not a one-off ticket.IIRC you can get a year pass for £45.

    From the webpage
    The following admission charges apply: foot, cycle and horse access is free; cars and MPVs £7.00 (a seven-day pass is available for £15.00)

    you could always start at hole of horcum(a169 pickering-whitby road),its about 3-4mile ride to join up with the red route at the back end of dalby,its round the 21 marker post......or a bit of messing about,could always get dropped off at the bickley entrance(scarborough end of toll),and then its only about 300-400 meters to join red route at marker post 23.......as for paying,there are normally nobody on the toll booths after 4pm,not that i ever use this not to pay :roll:

    or give them a ring and ask>01751 472771

    You dont need to be that fit, its got some tough steep climbs and fairly long but not that bad if you're taking it easy.

    no worries,glad i could be of help,and red route aint that tough after reading some of the things you have rode on slow rides,id say you will be looking at round about 4 hours to ride full red route.just dont attempt riding up medusa climb on world cup course :wink:
