Full details can be found via the link but in previous years ICC riders have opted for the medium route. It's a stunning ride and takes in Farndale which is known for its daffodils.  


Be great to see this listed on the app to encourage everyone out so if you're willing to co-ordinate interested riders feel free to use something similar to the text below which Liz has previously provided (Thank you Liz Shenton).

Notes


Come and join us for a grand day out cycling through the stunning North Yorks moors. This ride takes in the beautiful Farndale which is famous for it’s daffodils. Last year a group of us rode the medium route which was perfect. Organised by Velo 29 it was very well organised with good support throughout and a beer and burger at the finish.


If there is plenty of interest we can split into groups to ensure everyone has a great day!


Safety, pace, and ride notes


You need to register in advance (and pay) at: https://velo29events.com/sportives/daffodils-sportive/
And remember to complete your registration 1 week prior to the event.
We arranged a departure time of 8.35 last year which seemed to work well.


Kit, preparation, and weather


Hopefully you’ll need your summer bike and sun cream…
