Cracking pictures. I did part of the Mary Townley yesterday (02-05-09) but I was mostly too busy trying to gulp enough air down to take photos so I have downloaded some of yours which of course I will pass off as my own |

Ok Stuart, no problem.

Our Moors and valleys really take some beating. I would love to see New Zealand too. What about doing a home swap for a couple of weeks?

Great website and pics, Mr. We're hoping to do "The Loop" sometime this summer if we feel fit enough!  The in-laws live in Waterfoot so we got a good base to start out from. Take care. Keven & Tammy |

Hi Keven & Tammy, hope you enjoy the loop.

| Thought I'd take a peek! Great website - love the pics. Used to ride around the Dales as a teenager. Prefer walking these days. Hopefully (weather permitting), we'll hike the Yorkshire 3 peaks again this summer and take a few snaps. Bye! |

Hi Laura, the Dales are great, get back on that bike!

Cheers John, No problem, it would be good to show you some of my favorite routes. Due to the crap weather this year I have done much of my riding on the road around the ribble valley and into the dales. Keep in touch.

I was out riding up there only last weekend. We have had a very wet year, so it was slow going. Good to be out though.

Your right Mark, theres loads to go at around here. Even when its wet and too boggy we have quiet country lanes of the Ribble valley and the Dales to ride.

Many thanks for taking the time and effort to post your photographs.They are really appreciated.
Personally, I have completed the Mary Townely several times in one day including twice this year. Beware! to newcomers it is tough in one hop, especially if the ground is wet. But it is VERY rewarding.My tip is to start the earliest waking hour possible.
However I must complain!! - thanks to your images I now find myself planning to complete again in this coming October.This time anti-clockwise for the first time. Wish me luck
Thanks - John |

Good to hear from you John, Glad you like the images. Anti clockwise is best. Good luck with the ride. Ian.
