Otley to North Rigton - Billie Fleming Tribute Ride

This is an 18 mile ride from Otley to Rigton on Sunday February 15th, which is 'Ride like Billie' day as a tribute to Billie Fleming, a long distance cyclist who set the woman's record for greatest distance cycled in a year in 1938 at 29,603.7 miles. Our ride leaves Otley via Pool and then along the lovely lanes through Castley and Weeton. We have a bit of a climb up to Almscliffe Crag and on to North Rigton for a hot drink and refreshments at The Square and Compass. Don't worry about the hills! We can stop for a rest or even push if we have to - you won't be left behind :) After our break we head back up to the Crag and return to Otley via Stainburn and Leathley. This ride is ideal for riders who want a little practice and encouragement to tackle hills!
