Etape du dales 8th June 2025

Brian G0RHI and Mike G7HEN are looking for operators for the Etape du dales on the 8th June 2025. Please let them know if you are available.
We have a new and exciting route for 2025, taking in a whole host of new climbs and challenges in the Yorkshire Dale National Park. The route will be 177km and have almost 3,600m of ascent, so very much in keeping with the previous challenging routes.
For those travelling from further afield to Horton-in-Ribblesdale (the start/finish location in The Yorkshire Dales), camping in the event field is available.
If you’re interested in helping and would like to know more, please contact Mike or Brian
Mike G7HEN
The Etape du Dales is a cyclosportive held each year, in the Yorkshire Dales in the UK. It was originally established as an alternative to the oversubscribed Fred Whitton Challenge; like the Fred Whitton, the Etape du Dales is a long day’s ride over steep hills, and the proceeds go to charity – the Dave Rayner fund.
It is ranked as one of the most popular and challenging sportives in the UK, covering 112 miles (180 km) with 11,500 feet (3,500 m) of climbing and is considered one of the top ten rides in the UK.
