Local Cycling. August 2013

    Selby to York - return 34 miles. Part of the Trans Pennine Trail, total approx 350 miles.

                                                         A lovely country scene.




                                                                                 York
        An ice cream van from Scarborough converted to sail on the river Ouse, York.


                                  The Millennium Bridge over the river Ouse at York.

The old Terry's chocolate factory in York - now abandoned!

                                            The Planet trail on the route.


                                A rather attractive wrought iron sign on the route, at Selby.

                                   Walton(Wakefield) to Leeds.-return 40 miles.



On the tow path.

                                              Good cycling surface.



         Some artistic person has carved these (and many more) creatures along the route.

                                                       Thwaites Mill - and canal boats.


                           Trans Pennine trail sign - one of many to mark the Millennium.

                                                          Mooring station for canal boats.



                    We found lots of blackberries - and some apple trees - along the way.

                                    Leeds Canal basin - by the Armouries Museum.
