Gt Yorkshire Bike Ride

A good turn out from the Thorpers for this pleasant, well run and not too testing ride.

 Brad n Ange, Tony, Rich C, Martyn and Rod all left Wetherby after aerobics with the nice lady.

 Well signed and marshalled course with feeders every 10 miles and a main stop half way

The ride has 2 major climbs, lots of rolling but plenty of room to stretch your legs before a rousing finish on the cliff  at Filey.

 Rich went to Brid, Ange and Tony got the bus, Brad, Rod and Martyn rode back to Wetherby.  It is a different ride in reverse, as the climbs are all long and steady with short fast descents.

 We stopped seeing outbound riders about Malton, they were in for a long day in the saddle.

Fruit smoothies for energy at Terrington cafe ( not open Sunday!), then back to Wetherby after a good  ride in fine company and plenty of miles in the legs.

 I heard Rod got 100kms in today, which is great after tackling Standedge,Snake and Strines on Friday, chappeau the little sausage!
