Hi Tim, I often use the A162 down from Tadcaster to Ferrybridge via the Sherburn bypass to escape a few miles on the boring A64/A1, don't often see any Lotuses around there.
However, spotted a norfolk mustard S1 Elise near Sherburn yesterday around 4.30pm.
You probably know loads of bikers go to a pub just outside Sherburn, used to be mainly Wednesday evenings but nowadays seems to be most nights.
