We thought it was about time we explored North Yorkshire, stunning countryside ,great roads and of course Yorkshire tea.
Friday saw us set off ,the S2r owners, mixing it with the Friday traffic on the M56 ,M6.meeting up with Pezz at Charnock Richard services then north to join on to the A59 a few junctions later. Motorways are grim , the A59 a pleasure.
First planned stop was the route 59 bikers cafe, rammed full when we arrived.

Bit of route planning, yes using a map book, then off again.I took a left at Thirsk rather than a straight on so added a very pleasant 30 or so miles to the trip !
