Yes Will, cafe stop at the "Bronte Vinery" in Filey. And don't worry, there's at least one swine of a hill (Flixton Wold) just after lunch that's guaranteed to get the numbers whizzing round on your HRM! It's dead straight and marked on the OS Landranger with a double chevron (which means 1 in 5 or steeper).

You can't beat that Nineteenth Century technology can you Howard? To explain to our younger readers - this is a very large piece of paper with a picture of roads on it. When folded you'll find it nearly, but doesn't quite, fit in your jersey pocket. On a wet day you can amuse yourself making papier-mache models of Flixton Wold, and on a windy day they become the most efficient form of manned flight yet invented. On the plus side; battery life is exceptional, you don't get that irritating beep whenever you stop/start and you know where you are.
