Having been on a few rideouts I am aware that there is a lot of worry about keeping up, as well as going faster than your abilities
And the riders at the back are always under pressure to catch up (even though they are told to rider their own pace)
One of the reasons for this is the huge difference in riding abilities
So I believe the best way to take a lot of the pressure off is to have 2 groups on the ride out
One group will be led by Miztaziggy and Adyf
The other group with me and another
This is to allow those who wish to gallop off into the distance...........................................to gallop off into the distance
Those with me can have more of a canter rather than a gallop
It also means there will be less hanging around waiting for riders to catch up
Anyone unsure of there abilities can now come along knowing thhe pressure if off

Update Jan 2013
The weekend is Squires Spring Show, featuring Live Music, Fun Fair, Bike Dealers and Stalls............and a load of noisy twins!! http://www.squires-cafe.co.uk/whats_on_ ... /index.asp
For those camping, we have a few places in tents that will be provide
You will still need your own bed and sleeping bag etc
Seb...............Requires tent space
Tony..............Requires tent space
Rob................Requires tent space
Ckennedy +2.....Require tent space
If anyone local is able to provide tents as well that would be good, and make it much easier for the guys staying over
Here is a link to local B&b for those not camping

Nice route, what about calling in at Brid or Whitby for a seaside icecream?

Might need to go into the Dales more if you want to call it Yorkshire Dales

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.
