Motorcycling vicars will don their leathers for a tour of the three cathedrals of the new diocese of West Yorkshire and the Dales.

The vicars – who are from the three dioceses of Bradford, Ripon and Leeds, and Wakefield – will start Saturday’s road trip at Dunnie’s Cafe in Otley at 10.30am and finish at Wakefield Cathedral at 3pm.

They will call in at Bradford Cathedral at 2.15pm and Ripon Cathedral at 11.15am.

The run has been organised by the Reverend Paul Tudge, vicar of St John’s in Farsley, who said he expected 14 people to take part.

He added: “It’s all in a spirit of fun, friendship and beginning to get to know each other better.”
