My attention has just been brought to BBC2's "dance spectacular" thing - latest one tonight BBC2 9pm. Have just watched clips of last week's. Have never had the slightest interest in watching the well known celebrity dance thing but whoever dreamed up/pitched/pulled off this barmy prog, on...

Hi. I've just booked in myself & my 15yr old lad to do the Yorkshire wolds cycle challenge next July (15th & 16th). Has anyone on here done it before? Any tips or advice? I must admit I'm a bit scared now, it's 144 miles over 2 days, and I guess pretty hilly terrain. My longest rides up to now...

I've entered this with my 12 year-old: http://www.aukweb.net/events/detail/16-611/ It'll be his first audax and, whilst he's done 200k before, he's not done something like this. Last year's ride was a quiet route through east Yorkshire but this appears to be villages and busier roads. I hope...

http://www.ukcyclingevents.co.uk/events/wiggle-the-yorkshire-tour-sportive/ After really enjoying doing the short 50 mile ride at the Wiggle Vale Vélo earlier this year (despite the non-stop rain), me and a mate have signed up for the 'standard' 81 mile ride at the Wiggle Yorkshire Tour from...

I have been exchanging ideas with @Sea of vapours about the route of this year's Yorkshire Dales ride from Settle and between us we have come up with another variation which will hopefully be as popular as the previous 2 incarnations. Take a look at the threads for the 2011 ride and the 2015...

Hi, I am in need of some local knowledge on somewhere to camp in the Yorkshire Dales that allows a bit of ruckus. I am planning a trip for about 6-10 late-twenty-somethings to pitch up for a night, get 80k in the dales done and have a few beers and a bbq in the evening.. but I'm very aware...

Does anyone know if the tour de Yorkshire is going to be shown on TV? Thank you in advance.

I've seen a fair few yorkies (not the chocolate bar) on this forum and wanted to get their advice. I'm visiting York for the weekend (not taking the bike *sadface*) but have you got any tips on what to go and see? Cool bars? The best food to eat?
