Eight days to the Grand Depart
so today I drove over to Reeth to combine a walk with a reconnaissance of
potential places to park that can be reached despite road closures and yet
still within reasonable walking distance of the race route as it goes through
the village and heads up Grinton Moor; and I found Reeth well prepared for its
day in the spotlight with pubs, cafes and shops around the Green bedecked with
bunting and yellow bicycle silhouettes (in some cases actual bikes painted
yellow) including the Ivy Cottage Tea Rooms where, after my six mile walk, I
had an excellent bacon and cheese toasted sandwich washed down with a pot of Yorkshire
tea.
