Scarbrough to Morcombe

Why not do it west-east with the prevailing wind?

A solo tour would be vey rewarding and you'd only have yourself to worry about. You'll enjoy it.

That's the way I see it as well

Go for it @Mad-man . I'm with the others who reckon solo cycling is the best way. Apart from anything else, I'm usually too busy puffing and panting up hills to be able to speak . At cake stops you can always phone someone to share the moment with. You can go at YOUR pace; stop when YOU want; and go where YOU want. I've done a few solo tours and loved it - you can always find someone to talk to if you want anyway. Admittedly I am at a slight advantage in that I quite like my own company. People are great - in small doses .

I've done the Way of the Roses over two days and Morecambe to Scarborough in one. Way of the Roses route is nice as no main roads to contend with. I would say doing it East to West as you intend won't be a lot of fun as you will have a 95% chance of wind in your face and the second half of the ride will be the hilly part. Good luck whatever you decide.

The last 30 or so miles before Scarborough on the Way of the Roses is through the Yorkshire Wolds, a little-known and remote area of England with some fascinating landscapes.

I did Glossop - Scarborough this summer in a day, about 115 miles. I cycled through the Wolds and they were indeed remote and interesting. Bloody hilly having already done 85 miles or so though
