The hardest road climb in England? #55 Rosedale Chimney North York Moors by MuddyGoose - September 16, 20154 It's not the longest climb, it's not the climb boasting the greatest elevation gain either and it's also not the climb at the highest altitude but. I'm tempted just to leave it at that; just a lingering 'but'. If Rosedale Chimney isn't the steepest climb in the UK then it's pretty well close to it! 413
Exploring the North York Moors – Day 3 North York Moors by MuddyGoose - July 16, 20141 My main recollection of waking up on Day 3 was the feeling of getting out of bed in full view of the passing public. It wasn't that we'd slept in or that we'd mistakenly camped in the town square; it was only the odd couple of dog walkers and joggers but it still felt strange to be stretching and crawling out from my shelter at 6:00 AM in front of people busily going about their morning routine. So as we had on Day 2, we promptly packed up our stuff, back into our bags and for the final time headed off to find supplies. 181
Exploring the North York Moors – Day 2 North York Moors by MuddyGoose - July 11, 20142 Waking up under a 'canvas' sheet to the sound of the waves rolling in against the rocks below our cliffside, the sun up already and a day of mountain biking into the unknown ahead of us, we certainly felt no need for a 'lie in'. Yesterday's ride up from Cropton to Whitby had stretched the legs but we both awoke in high spirits and eager for Day 2. 157
Exploring the North York Moors – Day 1 North York Moors by MuddyGoose - July 4, 20144 It's something that I've been wanting to do for a good couple of years now; call up the appropriate OS maps, print off a bundle of them and then go exploring the North York Moors over several days. So I did just that, roped in a friend (Malcolm on this occasion) and took 3 days out to go ride. 126
