Hi wheelers. As we are now getting in to silly ride season, the next challenge ride up is the 150 in 12. The event resurrected in recent years has now became a classic wheelers event, with a mix of early hills over the coast and Grosmont, then the rolling flat lands back through Malton, historic York, circling back via Boroughbridge and Bedale. Finishing at the Tannery pub Ayton.

Usual challenge ride guidance applies. Navigating the route and being fully self sufficient is part of the challenge. There are no way markers or back up available for this ride. 08:00 prompt depart Ayton, maximum 12 hrs to finish. Additional tourist trial points available for mudguards and a proper saddle or handlebar bag able to hold sandwich’s and a flask.

Although the challenge rides are not lead rides, I still expect a steady and faster group will be available on roll out. Please see the link to the website below for further details and route. Normal club runs please meet as usual for 09:30 start. See you early starters there, thanks, Dave K

Cleveland wheelers Paul Christon mountain challenge ride. Sunday 18th May. 09:30 depart Ayton

Hi Wheelers. This Sunday 18th May is the eagerly awaited most gruelling challenge ride of the year, the Paul Christon mountain challenge. With 3 routes to choose from, ranging from difficult to quite ridiculous. Signing on will be from 9am Ayton high green car park, departing 09:30 straight up to Gribdale. Please see the link below for routes and further details. All routes have a 5hrs 30 cut off time.

So just a few other things I need to let you know about. In line with the other events we have moved the finish to the Dudley arms Ingleby Greenhow. All GPS routes have been amended to turn left from the Kildale road to finish with the Battersby loop and the end of the course at the top of Stone stoop hill.

Also I have received info that the climb out of Rosedale, passed Bell end farm towards Blakey ridge has been gravelled. This road is on the standard route. Hopefully by next weekend the surface has settled, but standard route riders have the choice of gambling that the surface dressing is rideable, or tackling Rosedale chimney to get on to Blakey ridge.

If there are any club members not wishing to take part then please organise group rides as normal, although I wouldn’t mind 2 or 3 Gribdale gate opening volunteers if available? and a signing on helper as our regular official John kelly is away for the weekend.

Finally, enjoy the ride, and remember! It’s not a race !

Thanks, Dave K
