The Lakes and Dales Tour: WSCC Club Road trip Mon 23rd / Tue 24th June 2025

[Marcus Barlow - Show and Events Co-ordinator]

Dear Members,

 

The Club invites you to join the 2025 Lakes and Dales Tour tour which is a 2-day event covering 250 miles of the best roads in the Lakes and Dales 😎

 

 

Following last year’s successful TLWN2 tour The Club has decided to organise another club road trip for 2025!  We invite you to join the 2025 Lakes and Dales Tour which is primarily a two-day event being Monday 23rd / Tuesday 24th June (less tourist traffic than a weekend!!) but will lap over into the Sunday prior to Wednesday after for Club members travelling to/from the start/finish points, especially for those travelling long distances.

 

• Monday will be ‘’The Lakes Day’’ 120 miles (4.5 hours) driving around the beautiful Lake District National Park.

 

• Tuesday will be ‘’The Dales Day’’ 130 miles (4.5 hours) driving around the wonderful Yorkshire Dales National Park.

 

Both days start (9am) and finish in Kendal with the drives out, including various stops for lunch and fuel etc, returning to the start point (Travelodge Kendal Town Centre). The Club will provide route guidance for this event as well as promotional clothing and stickers. Monday evening will be a social stay over in Kendal.

 

If you are interested and want to participate in this event you must book your own accommodation. We advise booking Monday night accommodation (also consider adding Sunday before & Tuesday after) at Travelodge Kendal Town Centre, Riverside Place, LA9 7FW which is a good option with underground parking. However, you are free to book your own accommodation wherever you wish.

 

Please let @Marcus Barlow - Show and Events Co-ordinator know you want to participate so we can keep a tab of numbers, there is no cost for members to participate in this event, just your accommodation, food and fuel 

 

Further information/route’s etc will be published here in due course.     

 

Please note this is a non-competitive event!

 

Thanks

WSCC Events Team.
