If you’ve never cycled through Thixendale, North Yorkshire, Yorkshire Wolds, you simply MUST DO THIS BIKE RIDE CYCLE ROUTE! You have to be OK with steep climbs, though!
On PART 1 of this 3-part bike ride video to amazing Thixendale in North Yorkshire, I cycle from Bossall near Stamford Bridge, East Yorkshire, and then climb up onto the Yorkshire Wolds.

I’m using a RODE SmartLav+ Lavalier Microphone for Smartphones for the first time – plugged into the GoPro Hero. Is it worth the expense? (£50 for the RODE SmartLav+ Lavalier Mini Microphone for Smartphones, £10 for a RODE SC3 TRRS to TRS Adaptor plus around £6 for a TRS to mini-USB to complete the connection to my GoPro.)

Oh i do like your cycling vids, looking forward to seeing more as you go along 😊
Hanging Grimston can be a bit of a pig if the weather has been inclement. The track/road tends to get washed out with field debris when it's been super wet. I think there's actually 2 sets of gates which are mostly open. I always used Uncleby downhill to gain access to either Hanging Grimston or Painsthorpe climbs so have probably never actually climbed up the one you did here. Another enjoyable video Bev. Sparked a few memories so thank you.
Edit: I was typing before you started the climb and now see you are actually going up Painsthorpe.
