Didn't even make into Glossop! My cunning route home took us over every high peak and reservoir in north Yorkshire and with the high winds, low cloud and rain it became a marathon with every road taking us into the cloud and mist making progress slow, wet and cold.....all 3 bikes were full loaded with gear, so we were all catching the wind!
So by 6pm, my mate started to get worried about his girlfriend getting too tired fighting her bike against the wind and going round all the harpin bends that resembled rivers, so we did a U turn when we were heading from Holmforth towards Glossop, and I left them at a B&B
and once I had found a petrol I headed towards Sheffield and got on the M1 to fight the gale force winds and just grind the miles to go home. Long day
