Dalesman Rally 2011 ( one for the bikers)

OK, for the few bikers who still read this blog, here are a few pics from last weeks rally. Held at Leyburn in the Yorkshire Dales and organised by the Dean Vally MCC. Leyburn is a very pleasent market town, quiet and fairly sedate, popular with the tourists.

with a few pubs and restaurants including the Sandpiper where we had an excellent meal on the Saturday night.

As for the bikes.....there were old ones, newer ones

In the next field there stood the remains of a tree that had possibly been hit by lightning.

Oh, you're making me feel homesick now! Haven't been back over to Yorkshire in yonks. Love Leyburn and Bedale and.... well, anywhere over there really! Looks like you had a great time : )
