I just checked the weather tomorrow and the North West looks dry morning and wet afternoon.

So decided to have a leisurely run out in the morning. Been to Hartside but not Hawes, what's that like for grub and scenery around it?

go for it adrian.pennygarth has good grub at a reasonable price and good roads whichever way you head out of hawes
.m.

Grubs good in Hawes. Cafe on the main street with lots of bikes outside.

Go either from Ingleton or Settle. Beware of the blind crests in the road from Settle, there's usually a bend.

Well that forecast was a pile of S**te. m Now says raining all morning with heavy rain around 10 and staying wet most of day!

Car staying in garage!

Thats what met check said when you posted, so I did wonder where you'd seen a good forcast.

Probably the BBC, they are often pretty random in my experience.

Yep the BBC.

Switching!

To be fair, even the Granada local weather at 11 whatever pm last night said it should start off fairly bright, turning wet later on. I prefer to take notice of the cr*ppiest forecast and if then doesn't rain, hail, snow, gales, it's a pleasant bonus!

Granada forcast and particularly Fred are useless I find. Friday night he said it would rain most of Sat.
