Huggate-North Dalton Loop

We continue to ride according to British Cycling's current Covid recommendations. We must ride socially distanced, although higher numbers are permitted on the ride because we are an organised event. Please bring appropriate tools and spares as mentioned below, hand gel and a face covering. This route is one of our favourites and we will start getting back into doing a couple of 'undulations' after lockdown. But don't be put off, we don't leave anyone behind! We will leave Driffield Leisure Centre making our way via Hutton to Tibthorpe, climbing up towards the edge of Huggate, checking in on the 'parrot' en route, before making our way via a well earned downhill stretch to North Dalton, Bainton, Hutton, Skerne and back to the Leisure Centre.

This is mostly on quiet country roads.

Due to current Covid restrictions, we cannot go inside any cafe but make stop for a quick take away coffee if time and crowds allow. Please be sensitive to the perceptions of others who may not be aware that we are an organised group.

As always, we advise you wear a helmet and check the forecast to wear suitable clothes for the ride. Bring a snack and a bottle of water too. Please carry enough tools should you encounter a technical problem on the ride and make sure you have two spare inner tubes, along with everything required to mend a puncture. Please also bring some money for possible take away refreshments en route. Should the ride have to be cancelled due to adverse weather conditions or unforeseen circumstances, we will endeavour to inform all participants beforehand. There will also be a Breeze Champion at the start venue.
