Notes
I’ve a few RCC pals up from London so be good to be joined by one or two ICC members wanting a good ride whilst supporting to women’s race.
Beautiful ride taking in four great climbs (Malham Cove, Park Rash, Trapping Hill and Nought Bank) whilst mixing it up with Elite Women’s UCI Race.
Roll out From Brantwood at 7.30am take in Malham Cove . Coffee/Cake in Kettlewell then climb Park Rash and back round to Trapping Hill via Coverdale. Reach top of Trapping Hill by 1.00pm to see women’s race summit. Ride back to Harrogate for 3pm to see Harrogate circuits and finish. Eat/Chill in Harrogate then cycle back to Ilkley.
Bring lights for this ride as it may be fading on the way back to Ilkley from Harrogate.
Safety, pace, and ride notes
Reasonably quick morning as need to arrive at Trapping Hill by 1.00pm. Then a more relaxed second half.
