15th July 2014 - One week too late for La Tour

This just made me laugh!! As I was taking my earlier shot this chap on the bike cycled by. We had passed him on the way up - amazing calf muscles!! When we drove on to Reeth we passed him again and then he followed us into Reeth. Not my idea of fun!!

Uploaded for my extras album
Beautiful view, certainly got to be made of strong stuff to cycle some of those hills!

Beautiful! I love the cyclist in the image! I'm assuming your 'one week too late' is regarding the flowers? Would have been amazing to see in full bloom...but still wonderful!

@lisatown Sorry I didn't make it clear - he is one week too late for the Tour de France which was in Yorkshire last weekend.

You couldn't have positioned him better if you'd tried! That's perfect and a delightful caption! Such a beautiful rural scene as well!|
