Northern Ride Spring Social | Sunday 14th April 2024

Following the 'Reliability Ride' format, the Northern Ride Spring Social is a great way to test a cyclist’s reliability and also that of their bike coming out of the Winter period heading into Spring. The emphasis is on fitness, self-reliance, navigational skills and simply having fun on your bike.

The Northern Ride Spring Social is for all abilities. There is no organised start, with riders setting off when they choose and riding with whomever they choose. Following tradition, the route is not signposted but a basic route map or description may be provided, see below. The Spring Challenge is a great way to meet and ride with new cyclists from different groups and clubs or to test your fitness against old rivals.

Start Time: 09:00am
Start Place: Northern Ride, Malton Market Place, Malton, YO17 7LL
