A slightly longer ride today over a route which included country lanes and moorland with a couple of miles of a busy main road thrown in for good measure. traffic for the most part was quite light although the A171 was a little hairy at times. At Borrowby we stopped for a breather and were visited by a local moggy which seems to be on the lookout for passers by. we have been honoured by its presence on every occasion that we have stopped there.
The first part of the ride was against the wind which fortunately was not too strong but once we turned off the A171 and it was on our tail we were flying for a change.
