Skivin'..

Bunked off, to ride with another couple of GS'ers, who were staying in Masham for the Steam rally

We ventured up to Richmond for an early brekkie at a Wetherspoon's pub, which was a bit unusual @9.30am

Good value, at £2.99 for a good sized, well cooked fresh brekkie - highly recommended

Up over the tankranges near Catterick and up via Marske to Reeth - where the famous 3 day Trial was taking place this weekend and into Arkengarthdale

These pics are on the Co Durham Border, near Bowes Moor

Chris then took us up to into Teesdale and onwards towards St John's Chapel via some excellent single track roads and onto Alston and Hartside, where we met up with some of his mates on their classic bikes

Nice 1971 R75/5

After lunch we parted company (cheers Chris for leading a cracking ride)

as I was feeling a bit moderate and also wanted to catch some of the 3 day Trial and pick up a programme for tomorrow's sections

I came back via Brough and over to Tan Hill pub................nice view over towards the Lakes

Reeth 3Day - good trial to watch, much more relaxed than the Scott in October

The motto is:

When in doubt
Get out
On the bike
Yorkshire Tyke
And enjoy

Keep on doing it, it's better than working

Very good !

Most of the small roads in Teesdale were the same ones I followed you down, 1 month ago

Main difference - it was drier :-0

Cheers Chris, I am (just a bad head, that I couldn't shake off that day, hence the bimbling at the back)

I enjoyed the morning I had with the 3 of you and even had a ride back up there last Sunday, with another few GS lads I knock about with, they were suitablility very impressed with the scenery up there, we did the Westgate road and around Garrigill

Love to have a ride again and/or some trails soon
