Ride 3 - Wetherby Fewston - 20th September
73 miles 3920ft
To Wetherby: via Askham Bryan; Wighill (Morrisons for morning coffee - 30 mins max.).
To Fewston: via Kirkby Overblow; Weeton; and gated road.
The Sun Inn stops serving food at 2-00pm which we might just make with a short coffee stop but another option might be sandwiches, which can be eaten down by the reservoir on the picnic tables. The Sun Inn can provide drinks afterwards if needed.
Home via Hampsthwaite; Ripley and Knaresborough with stops at either if anyone is desperate.
Menwith Hill Road is closed behind the “Golfballs” so there will be a variation to the published route - we will continue down to the Nidd Valley and go via Birstwith to Ripley.

The more alert amongst you will notice certain similarities to ride 2 last week.
