First 2012 Rideout

18 bikes set out on a glorous March day - warm weather, blue ski & sunshine - for a run down to the Yorkshire Dales.

Unfortunately, one of the riders suffered a misshap en route which necessitated an unscheduled stop in Richmond to regroup & coffees. The drop off system worked well, with the ride leader running out of "droppers" at Richmond!

The ride out re-started from Richmond Station and headed through Catterick & Masham to our cultural destination, a visit to the Leeds Pals Memorial in Colsterdale.

After taking in the historic surroundings and the fantastic views we ran up to the Manor Cafe at Bellerby for a refreshment break.

Post butty break we headed back North through Richmond and Scotch Corner to finish the run at Bradbury Services.

A very civil 115 mile round trip, good weather, good roads and good company.
