I'm in the North Pennines and sobbing, as I'm sans vélo, as I'm driving with my brother and mum. The roads round here are truly outstanding cycling roads, and virtually every route I've driven has had me going "Wheeee!" at some point - not many cars around, quite a few motorcycles, but all well behaved. Interestingly there seem to be more people on mountain bikes than road bikes, despite the roads being sublime (and a few ridiculous). I think I'd rate it as better cycling country than the Lake District, and I'm a bit surprised not to have been more aware of it, certainly in comparison with the fame of the Lake District.

Anyway, for today, a couple from the back road from Stanhope to Rookhope.

A steady 22 mile loop including Kirkby Wharfe Church and the stunning Grimston Park.

I pass it quite a few times, & have had a tour of the grounds back in June 2005, by driving in, & explaining/asking very politely, if I could arrange to have a look at the folly (tower) at some point
One of the groundsmen jumped into my Discovery (of the time) & took me round

Thanks for all your Likes on this shot.
I know this is photos, but I'm really happy with the video that I put together with some of my favourite photos from the day and some film footage set to thier choice of music.
Sorry that it's slightly off topic, but what the hell here it is.
