The Helmsley TT... Then We Found an Even Better Way Back | Free GPX Route

Join us as we spend three days exploring one of our favourite motorcycling areas in the UK – the beautiful North York Moors.
Our first ride begins in the historic market town of Helmsley with a trip along the famous B1257, better known to riders as the **Helmsley TT**. With its fast, sweeping bends and spectacular moorland scenery, it's one of the best-known motorcycle roads in Northern England.
But rather than simply turning around and riding back the same way, we set ourselves a challenge...
Could we find an equally enjoyable route back to Helmsley using only quiet back roads?
What followed was one of the most enjoyable rides we've had for a long time, discovering peaceful lanes, stunning scenery and some hidden gems that we'd never ridden before.

However they have made a miraculous comeback and North Yorkshire are home to many breeding pairs, a beautiful and stunning bird of prey to see close up.
Nice ride the Helmsley TT as it's commonly known by us keen bikers but has a reputation for accidents for those unwary Rossi wannabes, great for taking in the beautiful scenery best suited to a more sedate ride to get the best views, nice video, has got me itching to get out there for a ride.
Bird of prey most likely a buzzard or red kite
