That looks a good route. I've looked at those roads on MemoryMap before now but I haven't ridden many of them since it isn't easy for me to get over there.
Yes, it would be good if you could meet me at the station because I don't know how to get out of Leeds. I'd probably end up on some horrible dual carriageway heading in the wrong direction. Surely there must be some quiet roads out of the centre? Most of the ones that I've seen are busy, busy, busy!
I think that route will be plenty long enough, given the extra miles in and out of Leeds city centre. I should be okay for trains coming back - there are two per hour on Sundays.
Sunday am should be ok traffic wise but knowing the way helps. In and out of Leeds would add about 12 miles or so to the route.
Most likely make a stop in Otley for some grub. There is a cafe' just next to the river that seems to be used by cyclists a good bit.
I've never actually stopped there myself but if it's busy it's usually ok.
Come to think of it I have to see someone near Otley tomorrow so maybe I'll drop in and see.
