  1. The last 2 rides I have been on seem to have had little 'wider'
    publicity.
    They were the @great Yorkshire bike ride' (Wetherby-Filey) and the
    Coast to Coast (Morecambe to scarborough)

    as both were well run, challenging yet fun and some charities
    benefitted.

    is it worth using the list to advise others of any mass participation
    or charity rides

    for example

    14 August CTC challenge ride from Sheffield over Holme Moss 100 0r
    150k

    21 August Dewsbury Ambulance ride Dewsbury (w Yorks) to Morecambe
    70 miles ish

    and the Tour of Britain ride start not decided yet but will go over
    Holme Moss either from Sheffield or huddersfield

    3 routes likely 20,40 80 miles, subject to decisions on venue etc.
    will also have events for children and non riders etc etc

    some mags etc don't list far enough in front to allow us to make
    arrangements.

    I think its a good idea.

  3. Hi,

    I'm keen to do the Morecambe-Scarborough ride in 2006 but I can't find a
    single thing about it on this here internet. Got any idea who the organiser
    is?

    Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Cheers,
    Andy

    You could try Bike Events, they organize a lot of these things

    and also the BHF

    the Challenge ride is CTC

    It would be nice to have a thread on mass rides coming up, some of us
    post the rides we are doing and meet others on them but a thread needs
    to keep being replied to to stop it falling off the bottom of the page
    (for those not with newsreaders)

    it was the BHF in 2004; www.bhf.org.uk

    their events fall off the calendar after the date they run, but I
    imagine they will put an advance notice up before January

  7. We've done this one in the past and it's a nice day out. You can take
    it easy or treat it as your own mini Polaris and bag as many as
    possible - with free cups of tea and buns!
