35.48 mi in 02:30:53 hours at 14.11 mi/h on Giant Terrago. [Cycling] Lovely morning in Cumbria today and what great riding through Urswick and Stainton across to Dalton and then all the way down Abbey Road into Barrow.From Barrow it was across to Walney Island and through Biggar all the way down to the South End where I took lots of pics of the estuary and Piel island.
I returned home via Barrow island and up through Roose, Gleaston & Urswick dropping off Birkrigg Common into Croftlands and home via Swarthmoor Hall.
