The second part of my cycling Trundle was from Doncaster to York, on the sustrans route that I first used when we moved to York from London 26 years ago. It has always been a favourite route with sections on old railway lines, canal towpaths, old pits etc. It inspired me to write my Elmet book.
This was the first time I had been on it for a good few years, and it was great to find that a lot of it had been resurfaced and resigned. The whole area is sodden at the moment, this is the river Went, which is normally a stream you hardly notice beneath a stone bridge. Not this year.
