Yes - keep up at the back or you might get the lanterne rouge.

We'll since I am not a Yorkshire man I can not moan like one.

Have no complaints about the tour of Yorkshire, I just headed south down the M1. Glad I was not heading north as that side was chocker. I did notice more cars then normal had bikes on the roof. I did wonder why!

Have you not heard of authentic toad in the hole yorkshire style? A delicious combination of Yorkshire pus and frogs legs. All served with a side order of tour de sausage from the local farm shop.

Well just I just spent 6.5 hours on the M1 and I'm grinning ear to ear.

Dropped down Pool bank to have drive through Otley and it looked fantastic! Bunting all the way down from Pool. Yorkshire will be seen the by the World tomorrow and it looked amazing! (As it always does)

And I am very proud to be a Wharfe Valley boy!
