Friday ride up from Settle to Kirkcudbright is already a fun ride, and I am sure we will do the route over Hartside Pass like we did this year........ well worth the trip if you can only ride Friday.
Same location - Kirkcudbright in Dumfries & Galloway
Same format - meet up at various locations on the way up on Friday, the good roads start from Settle, so get there if you can. Out for a pub meal and on the piss Friday night, big breckie at cafe in the morning and out onto the best biking roads for all of Saturday. More food and drink, then a shorter ride out sunday and either stay an extra night or head off home late afternoon..
Look at the details from last 4 years rides for more info, all are welcome and any kind of bike, so bring a mate / brother / son / wife........ the town has lots to do each weekend over the summer so even if your partner is not going out on the rides, there is plenty to do and join up again for the eating / drinking / banter........ my wife will be doing that.
Campsite or local b&bs are great [update - There is an event in the town that weekend and B&Bs look to be fully booked
}the usual suspects had better make sure they get here, the locals will miss you if you don't come
