Cleveland Wheelers

150/12. Sunday 4th August. 08:00 prompt depart from Ayton after sign on. Rescheduled from 14th July.

Just a few notes for those riding. It appears a bus has crashed over the bridge at Grosmont and the road is fully closed off, this prevents us getting over to the footbridge and on to the minor road that leads up to the stape road. So I’m going to suggest we continue on the Whitby road, instead of turning left to Slights, continue on and take the next left to Aisleby, Egton top, Egton and then climb key green which rejoins the route on the stape road. Full route and amendment below. See you in the morning, Thanks, Dave K

Hi wheelers. After some discussions I have decided to postpone tomorrows 150 in 12.  The weather is looking thoroughly miserable. Rain all day today, double rain tonight and further rain tomorrow. I’m not after putting club members through this level of misery and not many will turn up. The 150 is meant to be a pleasant ride. I have spoken with fellow organiser Marcus smith on this one and we’re putting out a new date of Sunday August the 4th for hopefully some better weather. If anyone still wishes to go ahead tomorrow as it maybe their only date available, then please organise yourselves for a ride and I will still award the tourist trial points. Normal club run groups departing at 09:00 tomorrow if anyone turns up. Enjoy your day off. 

Thanks, Dave K 

Hi wheelers. Next Sunday 14th sees the 3rd running of our revitalised 150 in 12 event. This has proved a very successful day out since we relaunched the event after hearing stories of old from Cleveland wheelers legend Terry Lunn. 

Anyhow the challenge ride will be departing Ayton tourist info car park at 08:00 Sunday 14th after sign on. Usual challenge ride rules apply, it’s up to those taking part to be able to navigate and be self supported during the ride, finishing back at the tannery Ayton within 12hrs. Having said all that I would forecast that we will probably have 2 groups, steady and fastish.  

Anyone not wishing to take part, please meet up at 09:00 for your usual club run groups, or starting with us at 08:00 and riding part way is an option.   Please see the link below for further details and route. 

Thanks, Dave K
