With it being a lovely sunny day today, and thinking it's only a few weeks till they start salting the roads again, we went for a run in the Yorkshire Dales.
Coverdale is probably my favourite, from Kettlewell towards Middleham. Todays route from home was Birstwith, Duck Street, Grassington, Kilnsey and Kettlewell. Then through Coverdale, Horsehouse, Agglethorpe and Middleham. Into Leyburn to find a baker's shop, then home through Middleham, Masham and Ripon. Sunshine all day, though it was low in the sky towards the end. About 95 miles of fun, and a number of hills needing a change down into first gear on hairpin bends.
Looking towards Kilnsey and you can see the overhang loved by climbers. I remember seeing them cope with the overhang fifty years ago.
