Thanks.

Check this link out mate!

http://www.yorkshirebikers.co.uk/Biker food.htm

- It's pure gold - not fool's! It's a list of the most popular biker cafe's in Yorkshire etc. I can't open your attachment so not sure which ones are relevant.

Squires in Sherburn-in-Elmet (near Leeds), the Penny Garth in Hawes and the caravan at Devil's Bridge (nr Kirby Lonsdale) seem to be the most popular.

Whatever you'll have a great blast arounf our neck of the woods - the roads are great.

If you can fit it in and the weather is half reasonable this road over the moors is a real gem - it's single lane with three or four gates to open (and close!) but stunning views and a village ford (optional) to cross just before the main road

Then there is High Force waterfall just before you turn off the B6277 onto this road

The Allenheads Visitor Centre N54 48.153 W2 13.088 (down to the right of the B6295) is in the old lead mining works and has a great cafe - try the hotpot made with Cumberland sausages - not sure of the opening hours so call ahead 01434 685395

Surprise surprise, Hartside cafe! Near Alston, lovely place with a great view on a good day

Between Pickering & Scarborough is the Dalby Forest Drive: a toll road through Forestry Commission land.

When I went along it with a couple of mates we stopped at a farmhouse that was serving cream teas. Excellent and very good value even if you factor in the road toll.

If your near to Sutton Bank in Thirsk, heading to/from Scarbourgh, you could do worse than stop at the Divan hotel for coffee/lunch/evening meals etc oh and of course a room.

Cheers
