I loved the friendliness of all involved, wonderful organisation at such an amazing price. It's a long way for me to travel as I come from Kidderminster in Worcestershire, but it was so worth it. I will definitely be doing it next year. WELL DONE GUYS!!

would like to see one or two warning signs on a couple of the descents as I thought at a couple of places there were dangerous bends

5th time doing this sportive, I come back each time for the value for money, route, great organisation and friendly people involved.
Give your money to a cycling club folks rather than a business offering overpriced, over hyped sportives.

Thanks for a great event. Loved the route. The feed stops were well spaced but the food and drink available was lousy TBH! This is Yorkshire - out with the Frusli bars and cordial and in with the butties, malt loaf, cake and energy drink! Cordial does not make a 10% carb drink so will have caused a good deal of extra unnecessary bonking...
Signage was good for me on the 85 route but I knew the majority of the course. You could have done with a few marshals at junctions ideally, eg at L fork before Hawes feed - I nearly continued down the main road to Hawes itself, where sportive feed stations are often based.
I'm only nitpicking really - a great event and the route is very clever in its flexibility. THANK YOU.

Great ride, well organised by friendly people. Would do again, but be warned the longest route is not for the faint hearted or ill prepared.

Superb event, the course was brilliant and the balance between making it exciting and making it comfortable was spot on. I did get a very different time (quicker) on my Garmin but I guess it's because of moving time vs. elapsed time.

Well done!

Great fun event with some very hard climbs in a beautiful part of the world. HQ site was very good - lots of parking and plenty of room with a good coffee available before the start. Post race food was great, as were the sausage rolls at checkpoints. Stopped for a pint and pork scratching's in Reeth en route - great and well worth losing the time spent there!

A good event, like the way the results can be displayed so that I can compare my effort to others. 3 food stops are good - saves having to carry.
