Cafe stops

It probably comes as no surprise that with its endless picturesque towns and villages, North Yorkshire also has more
than it's fair share of great places to stop off during a ride for coffee. and well lets face it - cake! Rather than
simply list every cafe you could go to (there would be thousands), instead we decided to
show you our favourite places, those that we believe are worth going out of your way to find.
And if you disagree.......... why not send us the details of your favourite places to stop.
