A glorious route through a lovely and much overlooked area of North Lincolnshire. For those of you who done this route in previous years, Chris has spent a lot of his time recceing and improving on it for us, hopefully he will bypass those bloody nettles this year
Nothing too challenging and any first timers that want to come please be assured that we ride to the pace of the slowest rider and no one ever gets left behind.
Bring any snacks you feel you may need but we will be stopping at a very nice country cafe and hopefully a pub at some point (please Chris )
Oh and be prepared to see a dragon :shock:

See you all there,

Chris.

i wont have time for the full ride but will try and meet you all at the start

 

[Spudly]

It will probably kill me but ill try and make it there, ill have plenty of room for bikes and two peeps if anyone needs transport from this side of the water!

 

[chrisv40]

It wont kill you John, theres going to be easy options back to the car if your suffering at all. My mate Adam is coming along and he's pretty new to off roading so he will love a bit of company at the rear if necessary.
