This is a 3 night premium event in the Yorkshire Dales National Park for those wanting a good long weekend of road cycling and walking in this beautiful corner of the Yorkshire Dales! (You can come for cycling, walking or a mixture of both.)

We will even have a baking contest on the first night... well we do need those cakes to fuel the cycling and walking! There will be a prize for the best bit of baking...

Bikes can be hired for the day in the centre where we are staying should you wish to do so (Click here) The venue is purpose built for cyclists and outdoor enthuaists, and features a bike wash, bike storage and a laundry!

For those of you who are non-cyclists, Ian will be offering walks out from the hostel in the local area. 

Our accommodation is rather up-market from your standard OutdoorLads hostel, and the price includes breakfast prepared for us, so fewer chores to be done and more time to #getoutmore on the roads! Evening meals will be in the pub!
