With the best day of July promised, with warmish sun and no rain forecast

It was time for a bimble, yeehaa

The 650 needed an outing

The Dales looked glorious, so an easy choice - so it was up to Masham, a short 6 mile blast from home

Stunning view from Ellingstring Bank across towards the Hambleton Hills of the North Yorkshire Moors

Typical Dales scene in summer, freshly mown grass for silage, with an old stone barn in the corner

After Kettlewell, it was up to Buckden and over Oughtershaw towards Cam Head - one of the highest roads in the Dales @ 1800ft

Beautiful skies looking over towards Semerwater and Bainbridge

Dropping down into Gayle, there was plenty of water at the Mill

Hi JB

Opposite the coach/car park)
