Long Ride to York Cycle Rally 50 miles

https://ridewithgps.com/routes/43005720

Ride to the York Cycle Rally and back by the shortest pleasant route. At noon our Stuart will be presenting a Talk / Challenge "Where is the Great Cycle Racing Novel?". Drawing on philosophical links between saxophones and bicycles, and the deep cultural history of the Tour de France, Stuart seeks suggestions for title and first lines of the next great cycling novel . . . [Stuart's talk last year on Tommy Simpson entranced the audience.] More Rally info here: https://yorkrally.org/ Morning coffee at Walkers in Tadcaster and, if you haven't eaten enough at the Rally, afternoon tea at the Old School in Rufforth.
