Yorkshire lass sportive (YLS) is going to be back on the 31st of July   "Yorkshire lass day" organised Yorkshire cogs and Roses cycling club style.   

• It will be held at Carlton Lodge Activity Centre, Carlton Miniott, Thirsk, YO7 4NJ 
• In 2022 the routes will remain the same as in 2021,  apart from the long route where we have had to make a change, it now heads out to Pateley Bridge and up Trapping hill, we promise there will be amazing scenery and the same support with regards to well-stocked feed stations, mechanical help and good signage. We will have motorbike marshalls going around the course looking after riders. with ride angels from Yorkshire Cogs and Roses cycling club supporting riders on each route.
• Not forgetting to mention the medal, cake and a cuppa on your return to HQ where you will also receive a rowdy warm Yorkshire welcome as you cross the finish line. 
• We will be back in 2022 running the sportive with help from Yorkshire Cogs & Roses Cycling Club. You will see a lot of them dotted all over Yorkshire in the run-up to our sportive, Just look out for them in the lovely Cogs & Roses Kit and smiles.
• The kit was designed by our lovely Kit designer, Fiona Burrell who will be designing the 2022 sportive jersey that will be available for sale, with a percentage of the proceeds going to our charities.
• We will be raising funds in 2022  for Breast cancer care, Jo's cervical trust, Ovarian cancer action, Carlton Lodge Bursary fund and MND
• We have a very supportive Yorkshire Lass sportive Facebook page, where you can chat to other entrants and find out lots of useful information, don't worry if you are riding on your own you can also use it to find ladies to ride with. 
• We are very lucky as in we can also provide accommodation and camping for the weekend at the sportive base, Carlton Lodge Activity Centre. The accommodation is basic dormitory accommodation or we can also provide camping facilities at the Centre. "No need for such an early start,  you can roll out of bed to the start line" 
• Accommodation and camping can be booked by emailing yorkshirelasssportive@hotmail.com 

              We are looking forward to seeing you in 2022 - Please "bring me sunshine"
