    Having spent time in the jungle and many northern woodlines and open areas I would definitely say the Avon stuff is way better for any future trips up that way but if that works for you then all good :)

    What a brilliant write-up and gorgeous photos, Yorkshireman. Thanks for taking the time to share your trip with us in words and pictures.. I definitely enjoyed the thread. And it's great that you'd rank this tour as among the best biking days you've ever had! :grinning::heart_eyes:

    That reminds me of a Johnny 7 toy gun I always wanted when I was a kid but never got one as they were quite expensive. A kid a few doors up from us had one and I often thought about nicking it!

    Good work Andy, looks like the weather held pretty good so the rest just follows. Glad you had a good trip.

    Cheers Alan, I got really lucky with the weather, just a bit of very light drizzle between Ilkley and Skipton on the A65.
    Hoping to get another one in, maybe Wales next time. ;)
