management of the Branch easier, we organise ourselves into Regions, and within these are Counties. Each Region has its own Regional Representative and within the regions each county has a county Representative.

From the sweeping moorland routes of the\u00a0North York Moors\u00a0and the rugged passes of the\u00a0Yorkshire Dales\u00a0to flowing A-roads and tight country lanes, the county offers riding to suit every taste. Iconic stretches such as\u00a0Butter Tubs Pass,\u00a0Blakey Ridge, and the roads around\u00a0Ribblesdale\u00a0are favourites with riders year after year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yorkshire\u2019s rich motorcycling heritage and welcoming biker scene are reflected in its caf\u00e9s, ride-outs, and regular events, making it a natural gathering place for riders from across the country. With its sheer size and variety, Yorkshire lends itself just as easily to a relaxed evening ride as it does to a full day exploring coast, moorland, and dales \u2014 all without ever leaving the county.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"991\" height=\"274\" src=\"https:\/\/rblr.org.uk\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/yorkshire.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3674\" style=\"width:772px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rblr.org.uk\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/yorkshire.png 991w, https:\/\/rblr.org.uk\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/yorkshire-300x83.png 300w, https:\/\/rblr.org.uk\/main\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/yorkshire-768x212.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 991px) 100vw, 991px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Butter Tubs Pass (B6270):<\/strong> A legendary Yorkshire Dales route between Hawes and Swaledale, featuring steep climbs, tight bends, and breathtaking views. One of the most iconic motorcycle roads in the UK, though riders should watch for livestock and sudden weather changes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Blakey Ridge (A169): <\/strong>Running from Pickering to Whitby across the North York Moors, this exposed moorland road offers long sweeping bends and huge open views. A favourite for relaxed rides and unforgettable sunsets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Dales Loop:<\/strong> A varied full-day route linking Leyburn, Hawes, Grassington, and Pateley Bridge. Expect a mix of technical sections, open roads, traditional villages, and plenty of welcoming caf\u00e9 stops.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Holmfirth &amp; Saddleworth Loop:<\/strong> A more technical ride through Pennine scenery around Holmfirth, Meltham, and Marsden. Tight bends, elevation changes, and engaging roads make this a favourite with confident riders.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Howardian Hills Route: <\/strong> A gentler but picturesque route through the countryside between Malton, Helmsley, and Hovingham. Ideal for relaxed group rides on quiet roads with classic Yorkshire charm.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The\u00a0RBLR community in Yorkshire\u00a0is proud, welcoming, and firmly rooted in service and remembrance. From the historic streets of cities like\u00a0Leeds, York, and Sheffield\u00a0to the sweeping roads of the\u00a0Yorkshire Dales,\u00a0North York Moors, and rugged coastline, riders come together with a shared commitment to supporting veterans and championing the\u00a0Poppy Appeal. Whether attending remembrance services, staffing collections and stalls, or riding in parades through market towns and village memorials, Yorkshire riders proudly represent the Royal British Legion at every opportunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The spirit is unmistakably\u00a0Yorkshire: straight-talking, warm-hearted, and quietly determined \u2014 fueled by camaraderie, respect, and a deep love of the open road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>To contact the Yorkshire Representative please use our <a href=\"https:\/\/rblr.org.uk\/main\/contact-us\/\">contact form<\/a> and select &#8220;Yorkshire Representative&#8221; from the &#8220;Who is this message for field&#8221;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-theme-palette-7-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/rblr.org.uk\/main\/join-the-branch-2\/\" style=\"border-radius:89px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40)\">Join the Riders Branch here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yorkshire Region To make organisation and management of the Branch easier, we organise ourselves into Regions, and within these are Counties.
