SUNDAY: 18TH MAY 2008 START TIME: 0900 START LOCATION: GRIBDALE GATE CAR PARK ROUTE: From the car park climb towards Monument then turn off and head to Kildale via Bankside Farm. Climb past Park Nab and cross Battersby Moor to Armouth Wath, then cross Baysdale Moor on a nice fast track to Holiday Hill, then cross Great Hograh Moor to meet the Westerdale road and drop down into Hob Hole. Climb out of Hob Hole and turn left to cross Kildale Moor, taking a right at the ruined farm to climb over towards Leven Vale and Warren Farm. Fast downhill into Kildale, then climb up through Bankside Farm and back through the woods to Gribdale. Some great climbs, some long fast descents, some awesome remote views make this a great ride. Approx mileage and hopefully a route map to be posted next week Anybody in _________________ "Money talks, but it don't sing and dance and it don't walk....."

Swaledale's still planned for the 4th; I'll post something on that thread as a reminder to everyone.

BTW, I've noticed that there are events all over the place that weekend, from Triathlons to Trailquests & road races. _________________ Cheers, Sean 'my bravado tends to write cheques that my skills cannot cash!'

I had it in my head that it was the 11th which I can't do. Looks like Crispy might be coming along. Please could you get my good side on any future pics?

This is a proper XC ride, with some excellent variations in terrain, so there's going to have to be plenty of pictures to show people how lucky we are to have this area to ride in, right on our doorstep. Shave, and put on your best cycling kit _________________ "Money talks, but it don't sing and dance and it don't walk....."
