Best Ride Of The Year : Yorkshire Dales 200 km


#cycling #yorkshiredales #yorkshire #oakleyjawbreaker

Cold, clear., sunny conditions.
Ideal for a non-repeating, Dales-bound superloop.

It’s not taken for granted (the opportunity to ride) here in Ontario, but we could use a lot less traffic. Be safe.😊

@peterbrown1531

Well, once again,here in Australia I have pedaled along with you with my road racing bike on the turbo trainer.Enjoying the exhilaration,he fabulous Yorkshire scenery and your informative commentary about places and their history. At the age of 90 I still get a kick out of getting on the saddle and clipping in, to follow you on roads I used to cycle and motor cycle when i was younger. Even in my seventies here ,I was fortunate enough to be able to do long distance training and rides.At 70 I had the privilege of entering and riding in our Grafton to Inverell annual race, in 3 consecutive years and did the distance twice.Of course on the race results I got listed as a D.N.F,. because I got there just beyond the ct off time..However what a great experience for a cyclist of any age.The physical and mental effort required was worth it for the satisfaction .Keep on Clipping In, it keeps you fit into old age.

@HarveyTaylor-d2p

Thanks for the link to this ride, Gordon. Yes, the weather in the Dales was marvellous that week. I was in Wensleydale too on that day (20/4).

@trevorhalstead442

Great ride well done

@DuncMcNutt

Well done on that 200km ride Gordon! I can't believe you had fingerless gloves on, it's still freezing up here.
Blummin eck', I haven't ridden past Kirkstall Abbey for about 35 years! Nice route it seemed.

@69nisab

Amazing ride. Well done.

@andygolborne5747

Some brilliant roads . That climb out of Bishopdale is "fun" but it's amazing on the top there and wort it for the Kidstones descent and the run down through Wharfedale..

@gordontyrrall5299

Really enjoyed that – I know many of these roads,being from Embsay and living in Leeds – but I never ride them all in one go😂

@shaunwhiteman6028

Great ride, well done

@jdsenior74

@blaze1148

What nutrition regime do you use…..[haven't watched the vid. yet] – 200km – very impressive !!

@andrewshore9709

Very inspiring to watch such a great ride 💪

@Tarmaccyclocross

Having just been out and sitting down with a cup of coffee watching you going up the climbs it made my legs ache even more 😫🤣

@toddfield4744

Belter of a ride Gordon. Hope the recovery was kind to you

@michaelthorp2867

Great video, an idea for a rainy day video planning and navigating route, you make it look so effortless, thanks again.

@davidfrench909

Another great video, 8hrs ride in April finishing with your usual climb out of Keighley back up to Queensbury. Chapo

@michaeldenton2581

A Classic 200 Gordon 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻…taking in some of the splendour of our wonderful Yorkshire Countryside. I’ve always preferred climbing Kidstones from the Buckden side tho rather than West Burton (it’s easier…ish in comparison 😆). A word of warning, never call it “Mash..ham” I once got a right telling off by a little old lady in the co-op there. It’s always pronounced “Mass..ham” 😇

@onemorecyclist

What a ride that was! Much kudos, Gordon. Amazing views of Buckden Pike dead ahead and that's another road from one of your videos added to the list to go and try sometime! Couldn't agree more having the opportunity and health to get out on the bikes is a gift! 🙂

@barrygraham7598

God bless brother 🙌🏼 should never be taken for granted. Safe journeys your a gent. Love your content 😊 from Northern Ireland 😊

@gmivisualsjason3729

I must confess part way into the 100km ride I did a few days ago I was actually wanting someone to chat to!

@mattjohn7700
