The HAB monthly ride falls on Fathers Day, so double enjoyment.
As usual, congregate at Asda lorry park, Harrogate for 9.30a.m., Sun 19th.
After a short briefing, we’ll set off at 10 and ride SE into Wharfedale, skirting a couple of market towns and then into Craven for morning coffee.
After coffee, over into Pendle and on to The Ribble Valley. Riding north by the side of the river Ribble, up into The Yorkshire Dales National Park, to the www.craven-cruckbarn.co.uk for lunch.
In the afternoon, we’ll ride east out of the national park, along a good section of Nidderdale to old faithful – Ripley Castle – for afternoon tea or ice cream and then home in decent time for dinner. (I did look at Newby Hall Tea rooms but they said it would be £9 per bike to get in – must be having a laugh).
