Cycling Heaven – Between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District

A few clips from a fantastic little ‘café ride’ in an area I’d never been to before. Nestled in between the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District (kind of!), Arnside and Silverdale National Landscape turned out to be a really stunning part of the country to ride a bike around. Highly recommended and I look forward to a return trip up there.

P.S. I still have no idea how to pronounce ‘latte’! 🙂
