Skipton Cycling club have teamed up with TBF (a part of the Brownlee Foundation - you’ll remember the local Brownlee brothers are gold medal Triathletes) Craven Energy Triathlon Club, Cycling and Skipton AC to present the Skipton Multisport Festival.
On Saturday there are Junior (U10, U12, U14 & U16) running races, an Adult Trail run (8km) and two cycling sportives - 60km and 100km
The runs will be based around Aireville Park, and the sportive cycle rides will head out into the surrounding countryside.
The sportives are not the usual routes of the Petit Depart, but something new - both trips around the Yorkshire Dales and the Bowland Fells - plenty of climbs - but not as challenging as before. There is still a feed stop - but it based on a community cafe - so new and probably better!
All the route details are still in the detailed planning stage.
Entry Fees for the sportives are £35 and £30
