North Yorkshire (UK)

There are hundreds of incredible views and routes here .. for a few of them go to www.bestbikingroads.com for their excellent coverage. www.YorkshireDales.org.uk also have some fantastic webcams of the area.

e.g. Bolton Bridge - Thoralby

"It's awesome in three sections completely different. The first section is open and fairly quick with the usual number of hazards for a road of this type. Then it becomes slow and nadgery through Hubberholme and alongside the river with lots of sharp squirty crests and corners, no high speed but very high alert, gravel, sheep, campers, etc. Nice scenery though. Then it starts to climb, becomes even more twisty, cresty and nadgery with a couple of cattle grids and a couple of corner combos that will have you off at 30mph (too fast you see!). Pause at the summit though and see the sun low in the sky of an evening, a view which takes some beating when it's right! Then some more open stuff before a roller coaster descent toward Hawes which I dare you to open the throttle on - you will get sooo much air you won't come down for a week! Scary but fun. Turn round and do it the other way, it's all different again. Fun."
