It was cold, wet and windy. A great day out on the bike then...

Nice report, we did some of the Castleton / Commondale bit plus the COR that is that trail along Commondale Beck :) Looked a bit different in August...


I used to cycle a lot around there when I was a kid, I need to get back a bit more often to get some of them climbs in :)

Good report -thanks.  We'll be staying in Rosedale later this year, so I'm imagining... a daily workout up Rosedale Chimney on the bike and back in time for a second breakfast.  Have to try the ford too...   :)

Great writeup and lovely photos.

The only complaint I can make is how very much it makes me realise that 'Hard' is waaay over there with Alex >>>>>>.
Me? I'm a continent away in <<<<<<<< that direction  :'(

Chapeau Sir!
