About 18 riders went via back lanes through Newholm and Dunsley to take elevenses at a ford near West Barnby. From there a short bridleway was taken to Mickleby. Then lanes to Ellerby where we followed the A174 to reach Staithes. We lunched, admired the coastal scenes and basked in the sun before moving on to Runswick Bay. After the steepest of walks back out of the bay, we followed the disused railway to Kettleness, with a stop for a puncture on the way. More lanes and then a descent of Lythe Bank to take

afternoon tea at Sandsend, before returning to Sneaton Castle. Quite a pleasant hilly ride of 27 miles. To read more about Easter Meet 2007 click here.
