Tips

A good, solid slice of track which is (mostly) passable in poor weather. It can retain some muddy sections even when the weather's fine, though - so be on your guard.

Also, as the area is predominantly limestone, it's pretty slippery - no high speed screaming into corners here!

If the weather *is* good, though, you'll most likely be gawping at the view, which is one of those that earns Yorkshire the epithet 'God's Own County'.
