Yep, "Riders on the Storm" is a good choice. Did the nephew have a roast leg of lamb with yorkshire pud on the table ?

No roast lamb but delicious salmon and spuds!

Love the description of the frustrated car driver stuck behind you as you cycle on your way… I’m familiar with the nervousness of ‘is it safe to pass yet?’

Thanks Janet. Yes, I know those feelings as a driver and a cyclist. We could do with more dedicated cycle paths.

Lovely cycle path from Beningborough to York. You will enjoy cycling from York to Selby on the Solar Way.

Thanks Ray. I'd like to do Beninbrough to York again without an impending storm! I took a different route out of York...more revelations on Day 3...
