Default First Outing Over Butter Tubs Pass

Been out for a ride tonight, went down to leyburn via scorton/richmond way. then from onto aysgarth and hawes. Came back over butter tubs pass down into reeth and just have to say that they are some of the best roads that i have been on in my short time riding. Anyone else been over that way much?

I was out over that way the other week with Extreme3D. Never been down that road and i think it runs the Helmsley TT close for excitement. Brilliant road must do it again soon

Love that ski ramp. A few on the north south found themselves airborne on the way into Hawes.

Personally I am not a huge fan of the Buttertubs pass as it tends to get wandering cagers ruining my ride.
