Thats exactly what I thought, I was bored after the first 30yds

I have always used the Dales for greenlaning in the past but have given up the ghost now due to everything closing. I presume setting off from Skipton you'll be using some of the same routes I used to (some of which have allegedly sort of reopened, but apparently not for long). We decided that even with these few routes reopening it wasn't worth a day out as any route would be seriously disjointed and involve far too much road work.

That said, the trails in the area are fantastic. Thoroughly enjoyable with a mix of terrain...plenty of mud, grassed/stony outcrops, stony trails, water crossings etc etc.

I'd love to know where you get to, let us know. Maybe there's life in the area yet
