Route 254

One way ticket to Bridlington (74 miles)

This ‘upulating’ route to Bridlington takes you through the Howardian Hills and Yorkshire Wolds to the sea front at Bridlington. If you are doing this as a solo ride – or in a very small group – the options for returning from Brid are to catch trains back to Harrogate in the evening, or to stay in Brid overnight and cycle back the next day.  You could also do the ride in reverse and catch an early train out to the coast. The train journey takes around 3 hours and involves a change at York. An alternative, flatter, route to Bridlington follows the Way of the Roses via York which can be picked up at Boroughbridge.
