Day Four: Hartington to Hawes
It was another beautiful ride out of Hartington and through Buxton. We had a supporting rider join us for the day. Claire was brave enough to ride with this crazy bunch all day, and did her own fundraising to the tune of 200 GBP. Thank You!!!
We stopped at Manchester Harley-Davidson where we were greeted by local HOG members, and brand new HD riding jackets!!!! Thank you Alan and Harley-Davidson. There was a photographer there from the local paper, and we looked great in our matching jackets.
We had several more riders join us for the afternoon ride. We stopped at the Dog and Gun pub for lunch, which was fabulous. We were well taken care of, and were touched to learn that lunch was a gift from Anita and her family - owners of the pub. Thank you so much.
It was an incredible ride through narrow, twisting country roads after that. Past BoltonAbbey and through numerous adorable little towns.
It was really raining when we arrived in Hawes, but that didn't stop a number of the riders from riding up and down the street for the BBC Yorkshire reporter.
Everyone is doing great, and we hope to have internet access soon so we can include more participant comments.
Cheers,
Megan

Hi!
It's Claire Archer here who joined you from Hartington to Hawes. Hope you guys are all doing well and enjoying the ride. Had a great time riding with you all thanks to those who made me feel welcome!
Good Luck with the rest of it and let me know how you get on!
Take Care x x x
Claire - it was a pleasure meeting you and having you along for the ride. I'm only sorry you had to endure that weather! The rest of the ride went well, with the weather keeping us guessing from day to day. Apart from the hailstorm as we crossed the border (mother earth trying to repel the sassenachs!) it didn't get nearly as uncomfortable as Hartington to Hawes!
Glad to see you got home okay. We were worried about you having to ride home in that awful weather..
Take care and thanks for coming along. Ride safe.
