It’s been a bit of wash out with the weather lately, so it was a welcome dry day to greet us this morning. The sun of the previous day did not appear, however one brave Knight (Brian) still turned out in shorts despite the slight chill in the air. The brightness of his “shining armour” […]
ContinueA Good Friday Ride
Good Friday, but the weather forecast and holidays deterred many from turning out. Three Amigos assembled at Market Cross, Mike, Andy & Pugwash. A short hilly ride was the order of the day suggested by Mike. We set off over the Westwood to the Newbald road then on to Walkington. From there it was along […]
ContinueSpring Forward to a Sunny Sunday
You’d be forgiven for thinking spring is finally here with twelve Knights making an appearance in glorious sunshine and light winds. Our unofficial photographer must have been trying to tell me something by cutting me out of the group photo, however made up for this gross error by having one of my own. Not all […]
ContinueWindy ride to the Mere
The promised rain cleared overnight and left us with dull windy day. Various work and holiday commitments meant only five hardy Knights turned out today. A flat route out towards the coast was destination of choice and the Mere café at Hornsea for our midway refreshment. Setting off from Market Cross we headed through town […]
ContinueMothers Day Ride
Well some do have them as the saying goes! A number of the usual suspects had Motherly duties to perform, however we still managed to have a dozen turn out. Weather was very kind, feeling much more spring like recently. Sensing some reluctance in the group for hill climbing, Hornsea was suggested as our destination […]
ContinueEnjoying the Sunshine
It feels like a long time since the last club outing due to the inclement weather, so the great orange ball in the sky was a welcome sight this morning. Nine Knights turned out including two “new” faces, Sean and Geoff. With our illustrious Raymondo off on his jollies and no volunteer route master we […]
ContinueKnight’s MTB Away Day in Derbyshire
A great day out in the Derbyshire hills of the Peak National park with Neil, Brian and four lads from Sheffield. Starting out on Moss road the route headed towards Owler Bar and south over Car Top and on to Fox Lane. Following the Bar road the group went over Eagle Stone and down past […]
ContinueSledmere Ride 25th Feb 2018
Despite the mountain biking option in the Peak district, we still managed a good turn out for the route suggested by Alan (thank you). Perhaps it was the bright sunshine that attracted everyone or the thought of most of next week being wiped out due to predicted snow fall with attendant freezing temperatures. A total […]
ContinueTJ Friday ride
Another good turn out for todays run to TJs. The route saw nine knights heading out over the Westwood and on to Etton and South Dalton. Taking the mere road to Lockington where we almost lost Raymond as he missed the turn off towards Kilnwick (must have been so excited at being in the lead). […]
ContinueClub Ride 11th Feb
A cool stiff breeze did nothing to prohibit a good turn out today. Ten knights set off from Market Cross over the Westwood and on to Walkington heading for Bluestone bottoms then up Comberdale hill. Winds coming off the starboard bow on the way up didn’t help so it was a bit relief to finally […]
