Summer’s long days. So ride a bike.

23 24 June Coast to Coast cyclemotor and moped run, Hartlepool to Whitehaven

This issue of Bike hits the news agents on 30 May, plenty of time to buy and fettle a silly moped for the National Autocycle and Cyclemotor Club’s two-day, mid-summer run across the Pennines. Pedals are needed on some of the steeper inclines. The overnight stop, for rest and refreshment, is at Alston, Cumbria. thebuzzingclub.net

24 June Herefordshire Edge, starts Ross-on-wye

Vintage Motorcycle Club navigational event is a perfect excuse to ride fantastic roads in Herefordshire. All bikes over 25 years old eligible and the diversity of bikes is impressive, but numbers restricted so best try and book a place. £11 for entries received before 21 June. It’s not a race. I said, it’s NOT A RACE. Oh, I give up… Facebook - Hereford on edge 2018
