On-road loop round Ings

A second venture round a 14km on-road loop (this time to protect Lois broken arm) in Dales Way country.

Route: As before, leaving the car at the Mill Yard in Staveley and taking the noisy cycle path / pavement by the A591 past Ings and then up the side road towards High Borrans but taking the first left towards Heaning. On this occasion, the green lane directly to the A591 was passable leading directly to the narrow gated road signed to Blackmoss on the far side. Once on the hillside, taking the first left to meet the Dales Way and then following it back down into Staveley.

Conditions: Cloudy and breezy.

Pub: The Hawkshead Brewery for Cumbrian Five Hop and WPA.
