Great weekend, and a great set of lanes, 'specially the rock steps .. and the dead ends, I loved 'em!!

Will post videos shortly, just uploading to youtube.

Nice to meet new people, and good to be out with a bunch having a laugh .. the gates commentary from Graham was brilliant! ;)

Nothing broke, well, Olly might say different but I'll not mention it .. we all seem to have got home safely and in one piece which can't be bad.

I'll be making a few changes to the route as we followed it. On closer inspection, the route IS marked the way I went, the arrows are shown, with us passing the first lane over Pen shoulder and coming down it later! I'll keep it that way round but will lose the dead ends and a lot of road work .. and obviously lose the bridleways and other contentious bits .. ;) As a byword, the lane we stopped at where we met the family that looked like bridleway, was one of the lanes described by the chap who Sue got a few lanes off .. the track, hardly discernible, was the way to go. Apparently it is bridleway, but it has vehicular access too! I've not checked that myself though ...

Thank the lord (whoever) for a great internet connection, they're uploaded .. ;)

Did he let you drive, or did he just let you do the important gate opening and shutting duties. Oh welcome by the way.
 
Sorry Neil will empty my PM box now :eek:

Glad you enjoyed it Debbie .. and you're much nicer to look at than Brian, so very welcome any time ... ;)
 
Paul, did you manage to drive any of the Sunday route yesterday.

Particularly wondering about those from the site to Long Preston. We are going to go out and check the Pately and Otley ones soon but it would help if we dont have to go all the way

Yes I will, evenings are fine with me, will check with the others :D:D

Did two nice little ones last night, only a mile from my house (and yours) :D
 
Off to have a look at the Sunday route in my Focus :eek::D:D

Its OK, only kidding, I'm going for a drive in the area though. Determined to get this dammed memory map and laptop to work. Seems to do better in the car for some reason.
 
2 nice short ones I know of, one at the top of the chevin, near the royalty, do that one a bit on me way home form work, and another at bottom of pool bank.

what aerial you using in the lap top, and have you got correct baulk settings.
 
No, sorry. We had a nice breakfast and just meandered steadily home. Juliet wasn't feeling too good so we didn't do any lanes.

Went past (what I think was) Kirkstall Abbey .. wonderful looking old ruin, but by that time we cba to stop .. mean to go back and visit soon though!
