husoi 561 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Hey Gonzalo, welcome to the forum. You should elaborate a bit more on your "rides" Are you talking about a 200 miles trip? A 10 miles trip and spend the day in the pub? What type of ride you enjoy? countryside or just around York (city rides)? I'm sure you will find someone keen in going along but you need to be a wee bit more specific Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dynax 526 Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Have a google for any local clubs as they should be able to start up again soon Mind you there is nothing wrong with riding on your own, I prefer to ride on my own as I set my own pace and go where I want to go, if i decide to make a change along the route then that's what I will do 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder why you see so many professional cyclists in a huge pile up then. I'm same with big groups, no matter how careful you are it only takes one idiot. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Granty 0 Posted Tuesday at 12:15 Share Posted Tuesday at 12:15 Hi. I don't know if its open at present, if it is Fimber Cafe on the B1248 would be a good starting point. Not bad to get there from Leeds. Loads of bikers were getting in there, pre Covid. I'm hoping for a visit a week tomorrow. Get refreshed and follow it up with a ride round the Yorkshire Wolds and then bomb on home back to Leeds down the A64. Regards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
