Tour de Yorkshire

[TheFungle]

A friend is visiting me in North Yorkshire with his new Boxster and it would be rude not to take him for a little tour of the finest roads.

Based in Harrogate I'm fairly central and if I'm mood to go for a drive I tend to enjoy myself on the triple 'up & over' to Otley as well as taking in Greenhow > Blubberhouses.

I'd rather more of a tour this time but super conscious that heading over to the coast can be a bit of a trek.

Within reasonable distance I can think of:

• Boroughbridge > Easingwold
• Scotch Corner > Yarm
• Stokesley > Helmsley
• Blakey Ridge
• Helmsley > Thirsk (Sutton Bank is a view that I love)
• Settle > Hawes

They are all great roads but I'd like to take a trip to the coast, trouble is I'm less certain of worthy roads in the direction. Thoughts most welcome on suitably enjoyable roads to drive on.

B6265 Boroughbridge to Grassington road is definitely worth a go.

I get where you are coming from but the stretch from Ripon > Fellbeck is absolutely dreadful at the moment with significant chunks of the road missing.

To me it's one of those roads that the idea is far better than the reality.
