Starting in the heart of Wensleydale, ride through the historic town of Middleham, home of King Richard III in the 15th Century. Did you know he was the last English King to die in battle? Make your way along Coverdale and over Penhill back towards Wensley. This area is famous for its horse racing stables, you’ll come behind some on their way back from the gallops, they’re flighty so don’t get too close!
