Here are some photos of our hill climb on the THC33 course – the steep side of Clay Bank.
Once again, many thanks to Brian Gleeson for the photos.

Hi Wheelers. This Sunday 17th September is the premier event of the year! The castleton 50 in 4 challenge ride ( tourist trial ) departing from MSV, if you can congregate on the far LHS of the car park at the skate park end and be ready to roll out for 09.30. Please see the link below for full details and route. As usual part of the challenge is to navigate the course and be self supporting, arriving at castleton within 4 hrs. Unfortunately Castletown tea shop is closed again, so John kelly will be signing riders off either in the small green opposite the tea shop, or from in his car nearby if the weathers not great. Refreshments can be found in the co-op just up the road. I do have plans to re-jig the entire event, moving the start to Ayton and finish to Ingleby Greenhow, however this won’t be till next year I’m afraid. Please bear in mind this is not a lead ride! However I suspect that ability groups will quickly form. Please keep things neat and tidy as usual, and remember “it’s not a race”! See you all there, thanks, Dave K
