Pedalling Past: Icons of Yorkshire, Fountains Abbey and Brimham Rocks

Welcome to one of the first videos from Pedalling Past, our 'Time Travel Gravel' Historic Bike Route / Ride Guide channel.
This stunning ride takes you from the beautiful World Heritage site of Fountains Abbey to the unique landscape of Brimham Rocks using quiet back lanes and farm tracks to minimise traffic.
It's 40km with a few hills in places but there are plenty of places for tea or a pee so take your time and really soak up this amazing part of the country.
The route is on Komoot at 'Pedalling Past: Fountains Abbey and Brimham Rocks' but if you want the GPX or any other information just let us know in the comments and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
Thanks for being part of the start of our 'back in time by bike' RUclips adventure. It's never going to be slick or 'pro' because we haven't got the skills or the time but please let us know what you think so far and how we can improve the format in the comments. What extra featuresmwould you like to see to help enrich and enable the ride? Do you like the thumbnail? Would you like more drone footage? Does 'heritage sign brown' work or does it literally look like sh1t?
Please tell your friends and show partners/kids/parents too as the idea is to create a growing collection of history based routes that appeal to all sorts of people and get them onto bikes and into history by 'Pedalling through the past'.
Cheers

Great idea this Guy. And what a lovely thing to do together. Works really well taking it in turns with the camera etc

Thanks chief, we've been brewing the idea for a while and there'll always be more we could do, but we just thought 'Better now than never'. If we get a few people watching and riding the routes on a sunny Bank Holiday weekend then hopefully they'll have fun and we'll get some good feedback we can use to make future videos better.

Great idea Guy, been riding round here for ages and know nothing about it being an ignorant yoof (hopefully this feeds the choob! )

Cheers Gabe, let me know if you and Robyn want to borrow the tandem 🤣
