“One Ton Weekend” at Dales Bike Centre
07 Oct
Benji photographing the amazing view from Great Pinseat in Swaledale
I went up to the Dales Bike Centre with Benji as part of a feature for Singletrack Mountain Bike Magazine. Basically I had £100 to spend on a mountain bike weekend and the whole story will be in the soon to appear issue 53 of the mag.
There’s a right nice cafe there
We had fantastic weather, dry trails and received a warm welcome from Stu, Brenda, Anthony and Jamie. The centre is in Swaledale up in the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
Swaledale is a “climbers valley” and only an idiot would ride singlespeed there
Every village has one and here is the singlespeeder and boss man of the centre – Stu

There are some cracking rides in Swaledale, did you try the descent into Langthwaite? That can be a bit hairy!
The Bridge at Grinton does fantastic beer and the food is pretty good too

Hairy I like! Yes I think we dropped into there.
Cocker Hoop at the Bridge is very good.
