There was only one craven heifer (1807-12), although with every town in West Yorkshire having a pub of that name one might think otherwise, of which the one on the Grassington Road near Skipton is exactly 10 miles from my house and so suitable for a quick blast today before darkness fell.
I thought I might see Mr Brightside there but since I did not venture inside, perhaps that was unlikely. In fact in the twenty miles of riding I saw no runners and no cyclists. Well somebody went past me on an electric bike but that doesn't count. Actually I haven't seen an electric bike for a long while - presumably they are generally only ridden when the sun shines.
So along with feeling superior to lesser mortals that is another benefit for riding in the rain.![]()
