Trihard Events: Ripon Hornblower Duathlon 2018 Based at Ripon Grammar School just to the west of the City Centre. The runs are flat and fast but the bike is over an undulating route on the much more attractive west of the city in the foothills of the Yorkshire Dales. The final 3 mile downhill blast past Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal deer park is sure to put a smile in your face.Photos kindly sponsored by MoonGlu, an independent cycle shop in Ripon, North Yorkshire.
