The race consisted of a long initial climb out from Chop Gate Village Hall a loop out on the Moor skirting near to the Billsdale Transmitter Tower then a good blast down one of the North Yorkshire moors most prolonged and enjoyable descents ( the initial climb in reverse ).

The next race in the series is a YKH Club Run !,  the Osmotherly Show Race on 6th August @2pm, only £4 ( + £6 show entry  ) entry on the day at Osmotherley Show .
