Penistone To
Selby
Miles
covered 66.1
Miles
covered from the start 144.7
Full of breakfast, & thunder clouds looming they
set off, a cheeky little climb up to Silkstone
Common. Stopped at the Old moor wetlands centre
for a break, and then on, trying to keep the wrong
turns down to minimum. They arrived in Bentley for
lunch, sandwiches and a pint or three and then on
to the night's pit-stop in Selby. From Bentley to
Carlton the two Bicyclemania.co.uk trail-finders
came across no sign's to point them in the right
direction, so inevitably they get hopelessly lost
and wasted valuable day-light hours trying to get
back on track.
A point to
note, the trailfinders said 'Some of the
surfaces on this section are quite trying to ride
on, thick gravel'. Arrived in Selby late,
A small child on the canal bank fishing said to
Jon as he passed by "Alright kidder" & that's when
it all started from. It is now fixed in the small
brains of Kidder & Chiefy. All the restaurant's
closed when they wet out for some grub, they did
manage to grab a take-out pizza and a few pints. (Nice
barmaids)
