The Reverend Canon Paul Tudge
FARSLEY vicar the Reverend Canon Paul Tudge is joining four other vicars from the Diocese of West Yorkshire & the Dales to ride a five day motor biking ‘pilgrimage’ from Yorkshire to the holy island of Iona on the west coast of Scotland.
The vicars are all members of the West Yorkshire and the Dales Motor Cycle Club which was formed from clergy and lay motorbike enthusiasts when the new diocese was created a year ago.
A total of ten bikes will set off on Monday for the 725 mile round trip taking in the Kielder Forest, Edinburgh, the spectacular scenery of the Trossachs, Glencoe, Mull, Oban, Iona and then Glasgow and Gretna Green on the return leg.
Mr Tudge (pictured) will be taking his wife Rosie along as pillion passenger.
