Helmsley Rideout
.Organised by the East Coast clubs
this was the second annual preseason run from
Helmsley across Ryedale into Scarboro. Sunday morning saw a good turn out
from Selby and a prompt 9am start.Scooted up to the
Highwayman for breakfast. Met Taddy White Rose and Slingsby scooters there.
After Brekkie we hit some road works on the A64 which saw about 30 scoots whitelining on some
terrible roads. Turned off the A64 and rode across some beautiful
countryside through Castle Howard then into Helmsley. We were first to arrive as usual. Fair turn out
for the ride out maybe 150 scoot. Some only came out to Helmsley but
most then rode
across the Ryedale villages and into Scarboro for chips. Stu had some
mechanicals going home and Barry conked out completely.
Nice weather, a
decent turn out so it looks good for the new season
