MaprunPlus, Sicklinghall, Sat 20th Mar
Following on from the sellout event at Spofforth in August, MR+ ventures furthest south to date to the nearby village of Sicklinghall, with the banks of the Wharfe within reach. A healthy dose of footpaths and bridleways will make for some interesting route choices, and the multitude long distance views will add to the enjoyment of exploring this beautiful area.
