Rode up to Brimham Rocks on Saturday afternoon. Had a pub tea in Pateley Bridge while waiting until it was a bit quieter & then hunted for somewhere to stealth-camp with my girlfriend in between the formations. Climbed one & had a few drinks before the weather came in a bit. Lovely evening! Hadn't been there since I was about eight. It's cool because there's all these huge rocks & zero health & safety so you can climb any of them.
On Sunday we cycled over the moor down to Masham for breakfast in a lovely Moroccan café. After that it was up the river Ure past Jervaulx Abbey & over into Wharfedale via Kidstones (where we stuck an LSF - Leed Singlespeed/Fixed Gear - sticker). Since we were that far up the valley, we decided to go up to the source of the Wharfe, where the two main tributaries join. Then just cruised down Wharfedale to Otley via the backroads. I was about five miles short of a century so rode a long way home into Leeds, managing to pick up a second place segment on Strava. Third weekend in a row of centuries - not bad!
