Candle straight approach road to Harrogate from Beckwithshaw. For the first few hundred metres, you still drive rather cosily under the pretty rows of trees, but once the road widens, the visual indulgence ends immediately... The road is heavily frequented by motorised traffic, so it is not really pleasant.
Furthermore, the road climbs ever so slightly, even naggingly uphill from the Saloon (depending on the headwind and the number of kilometres already driven).
Personally, I would avoid this route, there are nicer alternatives such as Cornwall Road.
Kaarsrechte invalsweg op Harrogate vanuit Beckwithshaw. De eerste honderden meters rij je nog tamelijk gezellig onder de fraaie bomenrijen door, maar eenmaal de weg breder wordt is het meteen uit met de visuele verwennerij... De weg is druk gefrequenteerd door gemotoriseerd verkeer, dus echt aangenaam is het er niet.
Verder loopt de weg steeds licht omhoog, vanaf de Saloon zelfs zeurend bergop (afhankelijk van de tegenwind en de reeds gereden aantal kilometers).
Persoonlijk zou ik deze route mijden, er zijn mooiere alternatieven zoals Cornwall Road.
