Three new audax rides have just been added to the calendar. They take place on Saturday 14th September and start from Ingleby Barwick, near Stockton on Tees.
First up we have the Tees and Cake 50k, which heads out of Ingleby to Yarm and then follows the river Tees through Aislaby to Middleton St. George before heading through Girsby to Appleton Wiske and then back to Ingleby.
Next we have the Keep To The Roads 100k. This ride heads out through Kildale into the North Yorks Moors, taking the road to Westerdale for the long but rewarding climb to Ralph's Cross. The control is at the Lion Inn on Blakey Ridge and then the rides doubles back to Ralph's Cross and down Fryupdale to Castleton before heading over to Saltburn. The ride back is via Guisborough and Great Ayton.
Finally there is the Ralph Cross 200k. Out to Swainby and the climb of Scarth Nick to warm up the legs. From Osmotherly it's over Snilesworth Moor (possibly the best road in the NY Moors) to Hawnby and on to Helmsley. The route then flattens a little as it makes it's way across to Malton, before turning north to Hutton le Hole. A long climb take you to the Lion Inn and then it's into Fryupdale and on to Glaisdale. The ride then heads across to Castleton and over to Saltburn. Back through Guisborough and Great Ayton.... then there is a sting in the tail..... it's out to Ingleby Greenhow, up Ingleby Bank, down to Chop Gate and up Raisdale before heading back to Ingleby via Hutton Rudby.
Entry is £3.50 for the 50k, £4 for the 100k and £4.50 if you enter in advance (there is also a temp membership fee - think it's £2 - if you are not a member of Audax UK or CTC). There is a premium if you wish to enter on the day and there are spaces left. For that you get your route sheet (there will also be GPS files made available) and there will be Tea, Quiche and Cake on your return at the finish.
