Yes - it was a good day out on the bike.
@zacklaws spotted me on the first climb and held back for me for a while but I still wasn't able to keep up so he went on without me. I saw him later back at event HQ and we had a good chat then while I scoffed sandwiches and cake.
I didn't feel as though I had any ooomph today so I found it a bit of a slog, and as pointed out above - the wind DID pick up, which hampered progress.
I had to stop on the first climb to take off my armwarmers and base layer because even at 09:30 it was getting pretty warm with the effort of that long climb (~30 minutes).
The entire population of Yorkshire seemed to have gone to the Dales today! Burnsall, Cavendish Pavilion and Bolton abbey were heaving with visitors. Despite that, I saw fewer impatient/idiotic drivers than usual, and ... and - no driver/passenger hurled abuse at me on the climb back from Keighley. Normally, there are at least a couple of morons who have a go.
What I did see on the climb to Haworth Brow was 2 mountain bikes descending the other way at speed WITH 3 DRUNKEN YOUNG MEN per bike!

The rider, a mate on the top tube in front of him, and a second passenger perched on the handlebars. Drivers were alarmed to have them weaving in and out of the traffic.
What could possibly go wrong!
I have had 5 or 6 attempts at this post but I keep dozing off for some mysterious reason!
I totalled 136 km (85 miles) for the day, including to and from the event along the A646. I briefly toyed with the idea of adding an extra 15 miles to get an imperial century in but I was pretty tired so I didn't bother. Oh, and I did about 2,350 m (~7,700 ft) of climbing, some steep.
I didn't quite manage to break 7 hours for the event itself - I took 7 hrs and 5 mins including stops. I would like to be able to go faster. I'll try again next year.
(Sorry - no photos. It's a pity because the Dales looked beautiful today, but my phone was buried at the bottom of my bag and I didn't want to keep stopping to take it out for snaps.)
