Anybody know what the “cycle event” was around Skipton this weekend – went passed some signs to day but no bikes to be seen

I saw one of the signs at the top of the long lane from Hetton on my way to Mastiles Lane. Hidden by my bike here

I didn't see any other riders on the fells at all. I did see a couple with numbers between Hetton and Rylstone on my way home.

I’m guessing from the route it was the Craven Challenge – run from Craven Collage – did it a few years ago & don’t think it been runs since – shame the publicity was not good (not seen any thing on the forums) As I would have entered
Still can’t complaint did a darkside metric century yesterday
