Thought id sort a ride out as being new to Yorkshire I am going out and about exploring this lovely County. I put it in the events forum for them to look at. I'm going and thought I would see who else wanted to go as there's alot of BM'ers around here asking for friends and rides. meet Ripon Market Place , onto A59 stopping at Route 59 Cafe for breakkie and a cuppa, Skipton, Settle, Hawes, layburn, Bedale, Northallerton, then down to the A61 back to Ripon Market Place...
