Set off from the hostel at 10.00, joined the Whitby to Scarborough cycle route "the Cinder Track" a disused railway line that is now a family friendly off road route. It was rough in places but rideable on a loaded touring bike if you take it easy, I think it would be quite easy to pop a spoke on this track, some parts were a good surface but some parts were difficult going.
The route through Scarborough was reasonably well signposted but traffic was fairly heavy around the railway station. Anyway I was soon through the traffic and onto South Cliff promenade at the top of the cliff. I pushed my bike along the prom in the sunshine looking at the view. I decided to camp at Cayton village and relax for the rest of the afternoon.
