Hardy souls, all dressed in Christmas outfits, c 2017
Tickets are now on sale for the return of our sadly missed, Xmas ride-out lunch which we are to combine with our Annual Awards presentation this year. The combined event will take place from 12.30pm on the afternoon of Sunday, 14th December.
We’re planning a less formal, more affordable Xmas event this year, linked to a club ride or rides, possibly in fancy dress (riders to decide), incorporating our Annual Awards presentation and a raffle. We’re hoping this might have more appeal than our previous more formal dinners, especially to our more active and younger members.
The event is local so it will be open to both riders and non-riders. We’ve booked The Old Otliensians Rugby Club on Pool Road (next to Otley Garden Centre) as the ride-out destination (this is where we held the summer fete in 2022). As well as having access to their excellent bar we’ll enjoy a relatively inexpensive, traditional pie dinner and desert provided by the award winning, Pool based, 'The Pie Collective' van. Look them up on Facebook at The Pie Collective.
We hope to make this a big success, which will bring us all together at a great venue, with great food and good company. Everyone is welcome, husbands, wives, partners, friends and families, cyclists and drivers. Let’s make it an afternoon to remember.
