The yellow bikes of Melmerby (1)
At least seven yellow bikes have been installed at various points round Melmerby village in anticipation of the coming of the Aviva Tour of Britain 2015. Stage 5 of the Tour on September 10th runs from Prudhoe in the Tyne valley to the finish on Hartside Pass, the second highest A road in England. The sting in the tail is the gruelling climb on the A686 from Melmerby up to the summit, which gains 414 metres in elevation over a distance of 7.9 km.
This bike is sited at the junction of the A686 with the road to Ousby.
