A brilliant stretch of road, with some of the best scenery in the Dales, maybe even the ocassional steam train, or RAF plane to boot. If the scenery doesnt interest you get your foot down, and watch out for the odd car driver not paying attention to the road.

A nice stretch of quality tarmac with great views. Can get busy on summer Sundays, when bikers come out to 'push the envelope'... At other times it can feel quite isolated. As CDN has said, it is quite exposed to the ever-present strong wind & is worth taking that into account when route planning.
