Le Tour- Yorkshire Chic

2 sleeps to go......

So much for all the sponsored lycra, Ilkley knows how to do it with a certain sartorial elegance.

Clarke Foley Centre (this older peoples community centre) decided to get into Le Tour and arranged for the older folk to get dressed up and bring out their old bikes. Little did they know how much the younger folks of Yorkshire like to get dressed up. So about 60 cyclists go dressed up all retro as the band played and sang 30's music.
So Ilkley, so Yorkshire, so lovely.
