Starting from the Beefeater Pub at Morton Park, we ride west through Blackwell, Stapleton, Cleasby, Manfield, Forcett, then south through East Layton before crossing the A66 to visit our stopover at the amazing Mainsgill Farm, including a visit to see the famous camels. The return route brings us east back through Melsonby, Barton, Newton Morrell, Croft and Hurworth on our ride back to the Beefeater. This is a lovely ride into the countryside of Hambleton and with a unique and great café stopover.

This ride is classed as a CHALLENGING ride which is around 30 miles in total. The ride is undulating with some hill climbs. The ride is all on the road or cycleways – all bike types suitable for this ride.
