Ride the North in 2026: What’s Happening??
Been working on it! Takes longer than you’d think! However, things are now just about in place and we're almost ready to make both big announcements at the same time.
Announcements will be posted here and on the event website at 12 on 12/12
Both????👀

Can't say I really know. You would think it must be tough. Google says 2024 cinema admissions in uk were up 2.3% on 2023.
I'm reluctant to revert too quickly to "its same everywhere" as Aberdeen has used that line too readily when it comes to our problems.

In a weekend of unacceptable, unsporting crowd behaviour, hope a few golf fans took a moment to tune into cycling World Champs in Rwanda. Absolutely incredible crowds cheering every rider. Heart warming love of the sport 🇷🇼

Can't help feel some ABZ opposition to 20 relates to roads which are not proposed to be 20!
Meanwhile we still have things like this (Garthdee) with 30 signs erected inside the kids' playing field on on a residential road. It's pretty incredible anyone ever thought this was OK! 2️⃣0️⃣
