Steve Willis has been hard at work on the two 4 hour courses for our Swaledale weekend. You can ride just the Saturday or Sunday if you wish, but as camping for Friday and Saturday night is included in the entry fee, why not make a weekend of it.
The best value option is to enter before the online discount ends on Monday 15th, and make sure to add the extra discount if you’re riding both days – that will make the adult rider price just £30 for 2 events.
The event centre is
Dales Bike Centre, Fremington, Reeth. DL11 6AW
registration is 09:30-10:30 and starts 10:00 – 11:00
Day 1 – SATURDAY
You’ll be heading north on Saturday so it’s going to be a tough start and a fast finish. Thanks to the keepers on Barningham and Arkengarthdale East estates for giving us permission to use all of their private tracks. So some new tracks to add to the usual bridleways but please don’t ride them beforehand or they might withdraw their permission!!
Day 2 – SUNDAY
You’ll be heading west on Sunday so thanks to the keepers on Reeth, Grinton and Arkengarthdale West estates for letting us use their private tracks but the same as yesterday. Please stick to the bridleways if you go for a ride beforehand.
Free coffee and cake afterwards from the DBC on both days
Prizes will be presented at 3.30 on Sunday to the weekend winners plus OMM vouchers to the best of those who rode in both events – Wye Valley in May and Swaledale this weekend.
Hope to see you there!
Maps and other details to follow next week.
