After a last-minute change of plan, a very enjoyable day in Scarborough (rather than Metro Replacements). Doing touristy things as well as spotting. Plus getting the Olympus there and now back again.

I hope the weather was better down there than up here. We postponed plans to go to Hexham, as it was just so dark and damp.
Whats made you happy today? - Jimmi - 02 Apr 2016
I've had a pretty enjoyable day out round the Hull area on a bus tour. Volvo B10M/Alexander PS K785DAO provided us with haulage for some of the day. Highlight of the day was the bus having a singalong to The Jam - Town Called Malice and The Monkees - I'm a Believer
Now travelling on Virgin Trains East Coast back to Darlington.

Rain until 2 this afternoon then bar ten minutes where it looked like it might have started again, dry all afternoon with the sun appearing on and off.

Slightly better, then. We never saw the sun.

I don't know Hull as well as you, but that looks like it is in York. Behind the Station Hotel.

Yep, it's York! Leeman Road, which is just around from The Royal York Hotel which is a short walk away from the rail station.
Got the train to Darlington then boarded this here in York then we headed on towards Hull on this.

We need the guess the location game back!
I'm on a roll.
Never stopped in that hotel, but been there for a few conferences.
Seems a nice place.

Explains why it looked like nothing I could recognise in Hull!

I've completed my cycle. Last day was done with a major knee injury but im not a quitter.
Looking back in hindsight I think everyone was right - I should of gone to hospital!
But 200 mile done over 3 days climbing over 6850 feet and burning over 9500 calories im so proud of myself.
Couldn't of done it without a bag of frozen sweetcorn!
