Packed, Prepped & Pigeon

Well, got the shed all packed up with a number of bikes, plenty of kit and a fair amount of stuff I probably don't need :


It was then a quick hotfoot from reading up to Yorkshire to Dad and Liz's, no traffic jams and carry on with the carbo loading at 10pm.

A leisurely get up this morning and a last bit of bike maintenance, clean, chain lube, new tyres and brake adjust:



 Finally all sorted:

A quick go faster haircut and then off to pick up the camper from Harrogate motorhomes:


Includes fridge, freezer, satellite telly and all sorts of other 27' goodness.

A quick run back to Kirkby, load up the van, and then head towards Robin Hood's Bay, got a text from Dave 1 to day that he'd already cycled there so had some time to explore and pre dip his toes.

Arrived at the campsite to be told we didn't have a campervan but a house! Settled in, hooked up then wandered to the top of RHB for some food, the view from the pub/hotel/restaurant:














Some nice pigeon for starter and lamb for a main before coming back to the van for a bit of planning. Getting ready for an earlysih start tomorrow, down to the sea, dip the toes then Sedbergh..... well that's the plan!
