At last- a beautiful day. A reasonable distance & we are actually back on track taking a few short cuts off the new route.
View of the Pennines provided a beautiful back drop to the days up & down cycling along narrow country lanes.
This was almost paradise, no wind-even time to take in a cosy lunch in out door village setting.
In arriving at picturesque town of Kirkby Stephens we have now clocked up over 900 km's! Something I can't believe given my limited cycling experience.
Accommodation for the night is a converted church.
While dinner was taken on the village green (fish & chips out of paper)Michael & I reflected on the trip to date.
Thanks Anne & Mick for your E mails it's a pleasure in a small way to be able to help you.
In June 2011 I will bike over 2000km's unsupported from John O'Groats to Lands End UK ! My motivation is simple i.e. 1) To undertake a life challenge that is physically and spiritually rewarding 2) Raise funds to help 2 worthy local OZ causes - Painting with Parkinsons & a local 10 year old girl with Autism named Maleah 3) Promote awareness and support for Parkinsons UK ! Any support is greatly welcomed. I hope my journey inspires others !
