Big Breeze Bike Ride - Otley Cycle Fest - Leeds

Otley Cycle Fest Ride to Cavendish Pavilion at Bolton Abbey Bring cash for refreshments, and a bike lock for securing your bike at the cafe. A special occasion today, as the Champions of Breeze Network Leeds join forces with Otley Cycle Club for the annual Festival of Cycling, which this year is to be held at Ashfield Primary School in Otley. We leave the school at 9.15, and head out along the quiet rural backroads towards Bolton Abbey to take in one of the best rides in our area. We pass through the villages of Weston and Askwith, and will enjoy beautiful views in the stunning Wharfe Valley. When we arrive at Ilkley, there will be an opportunity for some riders to take refreshments in a local cafe, before turning back with a Champion to shorten their ride to 14 miles. The remaining cyclists and Champions will continue along the narrow rolling lanes to Bolton Abbey and the Cavendish Pavilion cafe, which is buzzing with cyclists on a weekend morning. Having worked up a healthy appetite, we will hopefully be able to enjoy our cake and coffee sitting outside in some warm summer sunshine! Refueled, we retrace our steps back to Otley. Once back at Ashfield Primary School, the Festival will continue in to the evening with a programme of family friendly cycling themed events, a bar and hot food.
