After sorting my carbs out, thought I'd give them test, so set off from Manchester to Stump cross caverns near Pately bridge for a brew and brekkie. manage to get the last table not reserved too.
Cracking ride out and a good test of the carbs. went over Mallam in thick fog and down into Grassington then onto Stump cross.
Instead of heading for the a59 I decided I wasn't ready for home so rode to Hawes via Masham and Middleton (very nice place there called secret corner)
Back through Giggleswick and over Pendle into Sabden and home via Bury.

Has the Hartside Cafe been re-built? I read awhile ago they had a bad fire.
