The Great Yorkshire Bike Ride
Team Royal Oak, Burton Leonard successfully completed the 2008 Great Yorkshire Bike Ride last Saturday and raised nearly £1000 for charity in the process. This is the 25th time the Great Yorkshire Bike Ride has been organised by the Wetherby Lions and last year raised almost £120,000 for worthy local charities.
The ride starts in Wetherby and ends in Filey a total distance of about seventy miles accross the Yorkshire countryside through the Howardian Hills to Malton and then onto Filey and usually attracts over 1500 entrants. Pictured above are Katie Barker, David Gilmore, Bev Hawman, Ben Drummond and Stuart Barker who all took part this year and sucessfully finished the ride in apauling conditions at the finishing line in Filey enjoying a much deserved alcholic beverage
