This is a social ride lasting approx 3 to 5 hours, depending on your pace and the weather conditions (!). Wide tyres are recommended (45c are fine). It is about 40km with 700m elevation gain.
Please come equipped with everything you would bring on a solo ride (including a helmet) and be aware that you are your own mechanic for this ride.
Start time 10.00 from the Alpkit store in Ilkley, with coffee provided before you set off.
Back at Alpkit at the end of the ride there will be cakes and weather-specific refreshments (the soup went down a treat last year) and plenty of time to chat bikes, routes and all things adventure with staff and fellow riders.
Tickets will be £7 and all proceeds will be donated to the Alpkit Foundation.
A GPX file of the route will be sent out to all participants who have confirmed their booking through Eventbrite, on the Thursday before the event.
