Pikes are at home on Saturday as they look to extend their bright spell.
Simon Heslop's men were held 2-2 at Penistone Church last week, but that ended a run of four successive victories.
Pikes are mid-table in Northern Counties East Premier after a nightmare start to the season which saw five defeats in five matches.
Heslop told Pickering Town's social media his theory on the improvement:
'I think it’s a bit of a mixture of things. We obviously had a couple of injuries to important players at the start of the season which stretched the squad. We have made a couple of additions since then and had players return from injury too, so now the squad looks stronger. Also I feel on occasions, over this improved run, we had had a couple of things go our way, whereas maybe at the start of the season we weren’t getting the rub of the green at times, which seems to happen when you’re struggling a little bit.'
Retford FC provide the opposition in what's expected to be a tough task.
The Nottinghamshire side are pushing for promotion after starting strongly following their transfer into the division.
Kick off at Mill Lane is 3pm.
