Short run out today went over the tops from Lofthouse in Nidderdale, fantastic weather, finaly found a pull in for the obligatory cup of Tea stop. Past about a dozen on the way over but they already had tea drinkers in residence ( two O.A.Ps with chairs ) per pull in. Guess what within 10mins of pulling over we were joined by 2 more felt like putting up a private sign. Still all said and done great ride over views were fantastic more so with a good cup of tea. ( its an age thing )
