Another Monday and only one more to go before the big ride starts on
July 7th.
Just a short route this morning. More stories to record at lunchtime.
This is Holtby to the east of York. It’s very quiet this morning. Even my
bike seems to intrude into the peace.
There will be an update about the Palestinian students later.

I resisted the temptation to ride too far – despite the sunshine. Tonight’s training was 21.6 miles.
I’ve been looking at the maps to take note of the route of the Yorkshire Dales Cycleway, but see I need the Yorkshire Dales Western Area map too. I bought a specialist map of the route from Harvey’s. It’s not too impressive. The route of the cycleway is marked on the OS Outdoor Leisure maps so I’ll probably use those on my ride.
I’ve booked a B&B in Hawes for the overnight stay all I need now is a praking place in Grassington.
Storytelling is over for another week and I’m snatching a few miles
before dinner. It’s a fabulous evening and I’ll be tempted to go too
far. We’ll see.
Just time for a short ride this morning so I’m heading out towards
Stockton (on the Forest not Tees) this my usual stop to stretch my
tight muscles before circling the city to Haxby or Skelton.
This is all for a sponsored ride to raise money for Palestinian
students coming to the Riding Lights Summer School. Link for donations

It’s been a busy work day today so no cycle training. So here’s a
picture taken a couple of days ago on the road (actually just off the road) near Castle Howard.
The new thing is that I am sending this picture AND message from my phone. My brother reminded me that I could do this through Flickr.
So now I’ll be updating both pictures and text from the road during training and on the sponsored ride in July.
