Trooper74 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Another tough day at the office .... M18 / A1M to Ferrybridge and from there ..... ?? There is a road that runs from Ferrybridge to RAF Dishforth ... a B road, sometimes a small "A” road, sometimes a big "A" road. But a lovely road, low on traffic big on “nice”. The maps don't show it well as it runs so close to the A1M, but go on MAPS and you can drill down to see it. Thirsk to York is a pleasant ride, the A19 north of York is a lovely road, narrow but with great views across to Sutton Bank and the moors. So Rotherham, Doncaster, Ferrybridge, Wetherby, Boroughbridge, Thirsk, York, Tadcaster, Sherburn-in-Elmet, back to Ferrybridge and home ... I stopped at Boroughbridge ( pictures) and again at Squires Cafe Bar at Sherburn-in-Elmet .... the amazing bikers cafe, and a return along outbound roads ... 150 Miles of sunny, but cold, late autumn weather ... Boroughbridge Weir ... in full flow .... Salmon can be seen doing the jumping thing, and the river is famous for Lampreys ..really nasty fish with a circular row of teeth .... but they don't feed in fresh water ..thankfully ... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 That bit of road that parallels the A1M is I believe the old Great North Road. Ride it often on my to and fros to Barnard Castle especially if the weathers good. If its shite I do the motorway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
