  • I thought I'd start an occasional series about my favourite roads & routes for a ride or a drive.
    In this one I take you from Settle, through the Yorkshire Dales along the B6479, to Hawes, via the Ribblehead Viaduct & the B6255.

    I bought a used BM triple black a few weeks ago. R1200 GS ADV model. In middle of tweeking it. Your route is exactly the one I'm going on. Love it. Cut my teeth in the military on SAS Reserve selection all around the Yorkshire Dales. In the late 80s. Great roads. I hired a car years ago on leave from Baghdad. Took it back and asked for a smaller car. I was going round the Dales. The sales girl was amazed. I told her it's a wee bit narrow round there and I don't want a claim. She was amazed. Driving a truck round the Dales is very enlightening. Tippers are a nightmare. Tractors and cyclists next. Other than that. Brilliant roads and views.

    One of my favourite routes especially when you add the Buttertubs with a spot of lunch at Tan Hill. How long before the whole stretch becomes a 50 limit like most of the country. Might collect one of those national signs soon for posterity 😢

    Agree with many of the comments. A really superb road. Best enjoyed during the week when it is quieter. If you are lucky (as you clearly were on the day you videoed this) you can have a great, smooth ride (without going mad) and really enjoy the flow of the curves. When I first did it, I simply turned around and went straight back the other way, testing myself to be as smooth as possible - and I am by no means a highly-skilled rider. One way, just enjoying the views, back the other pushing on a bit, but concentrating on the best lines and pace through corners by taking good observations ahead and making the most of the open views.

    Hi Reg, just wanted to let you know that after watching this video earlier in the week we decided to get up early this morning and drive this route from Leeds, really enjoyed it! Plus a good recommendation for a coffee stop in Hawes, hope you share more of your favourite routes soon.

    Great video. If all goes well with me, I'll be riding that route in reverse in a couple of weeks on a K75. Weather permitting of course. If the weather is awful, I'll just be wet and miserable on the A1M back to Kent.

    I love the roads around that area Reg, and particularly this route you're on...
    I often rent cottages in the Littondale valley at Litton, and spend a lot of time finding the good roads around that part of the world...👍

    just an add on to riding style, i always stuck to my side of the road which makes bends more interesting,

    There is a lovely pottering low speed run from Clapham Station (off A65 just above Settle) on unlisted or C road down into Clitheroe. Views all across over to Heysham Power Station. Perfect for a smaller bike or someone with some speed control and a soul.

    07:19, silver Focus, I'm surprised they even looked at that junction.

    A Road I use from our weekend caravan in Ripon to home in Gargrave, other direction of course! Yes please more of this type of video. I don’t think we’ve seen the AJS this year. ?

    Fill up with fuel at the filling station in Hawes. 4p a litre cheaper than the supermarkets in Skipton and elsewhere.

    Once I may have averaged the B6255 at 78mph in a Ford Fiesta during sunrise, naughty, but a stunning piece of road..

    greetings from fellow Bostonian, happily now live on the road not far from Seaside so this is my daily commute , the first "more paint more danger" you mentioned a father with son pillion crashed at that tight corner and sadly died a few years back its bad one for sure
