Included in entry:
Event Hubs - In each of the three event hubs there is tea or coffee and home made cake from 7.30am to get you fueled up. The hub on Saturday is Mytholmroyd Community Centre, on Sunday it is 3 Peaks Cycles Cafe in Settle and on Monday it is Half n Half bar in Sedbergh. After your ride you are welcome to use the facilities at the event hub as an ordinary member of the public. Note: Mytholmroyd Community Centre has the bonus of hot showers which riders are welcome to use whereas the facilities at the two other venues are limited to decent toilets.
GPX file - The field tested gpx files for each event will be sent to your email address a week prior to the event.
Starting line - There is no mass start and no timing of your ride. The start line will be marked by Yorkshire Divide flags is at the front of each venue.
Parking - your car / van can be parked at Mytholmroyd Community Centre for the duration of event 1 from Friday through to the Sunday morning. Parking in Settle on Sunday and Sedbergh on Monday is at the numerous car parks dotted around the towns.
Railway - Mytholmroyd is on the train line between Leeds and Manchester and Settle is served by trains but Sedbergh does not have a train station. The nearest station to Sedbergh is Dent which is up the line from Settle and then a short and pleasant ride down from the station and along Dentdale. Its a bit harder on the return because Dent station is one of the highest in the country!!
Badge - All riders receive a Pennine Skyline embroidered cloth badge as well as bike stickers for each of the three Skylines - Calder, Ribblehead and Howgills.
