I wondered what the fox was looking for in Whitby.
Cycle into Whitby for coffee and a bit of shopping early to avoid tourists. Then a drive down to Burniston outside Scarborough to a new site for me NOT IMPRESSED booked hardstanding with awning given what the club call “Typical” Grass or hardstanding pitch then told to reverse in as that’s how we like it all except the man on the end? Toilet block just behind me 2 showers 3 toilets 2 hand basins for 30 caravans/motorhomes for this block.
NO WIFI on site its broken ####
Its been promising rain all day but it looks good so a cycle into Scarborough via The Sealife Centre and Prom.
Been down at this side of town reminds me of the time we ran to Whitby from here along the Cleveland Way it was good. The town centre was still UGH.

Pictures from yesterday.
A really stunning door camera.
Sometimes its difficult to spot some of the sights.
This house was built in about 1710.
A cycle into town twice today on a lovely sunny windy day the only trouble was the tourists don’t walk on the paths here making the roads busy although I did find some new streets that I have not been on before .
Love the sign on the gate.
25-26 Lambretta weekend in Whitby.
Some shopping again moving tomorrow to a site I have not been before. My carpet says MUCHES GRASS is US (I think its Spanish will have to vac tomorrow.

Looking back at Sandsend.
Stopped to see what’s on.
Next morning cycle down into Whitby strange window display!
Coffee n cake and a cycle to the harbour where the car crashed into the water how it got over all the stones is wow and the car is still there.
Back for lunch then another cycle up to The Abbey and church I was surprised to see that people had been camping in the church yard and the first time I have seen a sign asking you not to photo grave stones.
Another cycle down to Sandsend.
A short cycle to Liddle for some shopping may have another cycle after tea.

This campsite at Cayton has camping huts and the site has 1 Manager and 8 wardens.
Cheap coffee ????
Cycle this morning into Filey for a coffee and walkabout before moving to Whitby while cycling along I worked out cycling on average 70 miles a week so in a year 3650 miles a year.
Had trouble this morning parking bike at Tesco its a staff smoking area.
Good drive up stopped for fuel ouch its gone up a lot.
On arrival got a good pitch but as every time I come here they are cutting the grass almost all day (moan) so out with the bike for a cycle into Whitby and a look around still cutting tonight at 1700 Ugh must put this site on my no go zone.
The Whale Bones have now gone.
The below has been covered up for a while while work been done.
Spotted this house that was for sale wonder if it has parking ?
23 September 2026 SCARBOROUGH
Raining this morning so a washing day then caught a bus into town it was horrible every time I catch a bus here I have to stand and its a double decker UGH. Walk about and did some shopping as moving day tomorrow. Town centre horrible so skipped coffee and bus back.
After lunch a cycle into Scarborough and passed a lovey Jam shop.
Did stop for a Starbucks in the slowest serving shop in the UK not good reviews on Trip Advisor.
Some interesting info for the Grand Hotel for you.
When the Grand Hotel was completed in 1867, it was the largest in Europe. Its design is a masterpiece of hidden symbolism representing time: 4 Towers: Representing the four seasons.12 Floors: Representing the months.52 Chimneys: Representing the weeks of the year.365 Bedrooms: Originally, one for every day.
New signs have appeared on the Esplanade and they seem to be working HOW ODD?

early morning cycle in the mist to Filey for a coffee then up onto the cliff top
My old friend is still here.
Filey Brigg great dive site for very old wrecks (no not me).
While taking this picture the Queen Bee arrived back and got her picture WOW
In the afternoon a cycle into Scarborough this lift may not have a life soon.
The cliff lift, built in 1875 at a cost of about £8,000, is one of Scarborough’s best-known heritage attractions. The survey now will probably cost more than that.
Looking back across the bay from the castle
Thought I would visit the grave of Ann Bronte
The North Bay looking towards a campsite I will visit soon.
Back through the town and Over the valley bridge that lots of people have died jumping of many years ago.
A lovely busy day and managed to meet a warden I know from down south up here for a few days holiday. Have now passed over 300 cycles this year so worked out I do about 1500 miles a year cycling not bad for a young man like me opps! mental age 12.

Had a walk round the campsite waiting for the rain to stop one thing I have noticed with the many times I have been to this campsite and been sat with the door open the flies are different to anywhere else in Britain its as though they are drunk or stupid definitely strang.
Cycle into town rain started again so sheltered on the sea front and got chatting with a “local” intereasting!
Stopped to sea if this was finished yet maybe soon.
These 2 chairs outside this shop are odd.
After lunch a cycle up to The lighthouse at Flamborough head passed these 2 additions to a campsite.
The wind coming back was unbelievable could have got blown off. Called in to look at the new Garden centre on the golf course across from the campsite.
