Got pm'ed from another member today (tommo891) asking for good routes/places to go riding in the north east, and it got me interested in finding more routes for myself also, so i thought i would ask for your recommendations on the subject.

Guisborough to Whitby via the moors road, and back along the coast road - not forgetting fish and chips in Whitby.

my absolute favourite is Malton to Beverley via Wetwang - not forgetting fish and chips in Wetwang.

mmmmmm. explains the excessive cuddlyness.

Mmmmmm fish and chips

Serviced bike, took her out of the garage to go out and the heavens open'd...
put bike away and it stopped...
Is this a sign....?
So missus got me to block up the chimney as we removed the gas fire the other week. yes I've put a breather pipe up so it can breath (ventilation)

So now having a cold beer in piece.

That Google ride looks like a good'un Richie!

May have to do that soon, although getting the Tigger serviced first would be am idea. The rev limit is killing me!

I got drenched! Then got (sand) blasted with hailstones!

So I took the bike home, and then for a beer(s) with the lads. Back just before 8:00 to cook Mrs B her tea before she got in from work. Mucho brownie points..
