********************************************************************
              A big thanks to Walter for taking me on an awesome ride around the Yorkshire Dales today.



What can I say.

Yorkshire didn't put on a very nice welcome for me but certainly redeemed it's self today. There were a few spots of rain, other than that it was great riding weather.

The scenery I saw today is what I had envisaged I would see on this trip (it must come from watching to many English TV shows). Down south I had some ok scenery but most of the roads I rode where surrounded by hedges so you couldn't really see much, but today WOW spectacular scenery mostly open roads, up and down valleys, everything I had hoped for.




























I loved coming into all the little villages with all the stone buildings.








The hard decision today was do I concentrate on riding the nice roads or taking in the scenery, there were occasions when I was concentrating on the scenery when I really should have been paying more attention to the roads 😁

It was horrible to see some of the devastation that the flooding had caused.





If you live in the UK and haven't been here, honestly you really need to.

I wish I had more time here.

Still a fair bit of rain today. I stayed st the hotel and did some blog updates.

I thought it had stopped raining so went out to take some photos, but I was mistaken. The view would be amazing in the sunshine.






Some photos of the hotel.



And as I write this it is coming down again. 🌧
