Bank Holiday, ice cream time at Arnside........for some

A glorious Bank Holiday Monday at Arnside Pier saw a wave of finshers, including Jordan Mathews in second place and Steve Chapman in third, a strong ride from both guys.

Jordan sent us some words and photos of his journey:

The bogs, fences and vertical bridleways started to wear on me slightly towards the end and I messed-up my eating slightly so had to wait over an hour in Askrigg this morning for a cafe to open.

The bike was good, (after a jet wash in a car park yesterday) and there are definitely some sections of the route I will be re-visiting in my own time.

We should another wave today with organiser Chris Ellison and leading lady Karen Price expected to bring it home.

Lots of pictures popping up on Insta of the event :
