RIDE The Dales

RIDE The Dales Yorkshire charity sportive has 3 road routes offering a ride for all!

The challenging 100-mile, Champion route takes in the sites of Nidderdale, following in the tyre tracks of the great and the good, on roads used in the Tour de Yorkshire, up and down dale through Summer Bridge and Pateley Bridge before the main climb of the day.

Trapping Hill featured in both the Tour de Yorkshire 2016 and the UCI Road World Champs 2019, is a 2.1km climb with an average gradient of 9.9% - we assure you the views at the top are worth it! Climb complete you can enjoy some of the flattest lanes Yorkshire has to offer through quiet villages.

For something a little less intense, the Cool route, at 41-miles, offers up a relatively flat alternative to the others, and takes riders past Fountains Abbey and through Ripon. Or pick the 65-mile Classic route for the perfect middle ground.

As ever with an Action RIDE Series charity sportive, you can expect a great day in the saddle with first-class support from the charity who get cyclists!
