Quiet roads, smooth tarmac, great climbs and stunning scenery are the hallmarks of road riding in the Yorkshire Dales. Good enough to bring the Tour De France 2014 Grand Depart and the 2019 Road World Championships right past our door. Dales Bike Centre provides the ideal venue for training camps, club trips and mini breaks in the Tour de Yorkshire countryside.
Dales Bike Centre has everything riders need to get the most from their trip. Plenty of free parking, a top quality shop and workshop, bike-friendly accommodation, and a cracking cafe to refuel before and after your ride.
Take a steady pootle up the Dale that can be extended to the classic 30-mile Swaledale circuit via Tan Hill Inn. Or tick off some of the ‘100 Greatest Climbs’, as featured in Simon Warren’s iconic guidebooks.
Whatever your level, we can help you plan the ideal ride - including a stunning section of the 2014 Tour De France Grand Depart.
