A 25km evening cycle ride to the Eagle and Child, Staveley.
Route: from home along the canal path to Dockray Hall Road to join the Burneside Road and meet Lois emerging from a Burneside Parish Council meeting. At Bowston taking a right turn across the river to join the back road to Staveley and round to the pub. After a pint or two, back along the direct route (but not the bypass) via Plantation Bridge.
Conditions: Warm light evening cycling out. Just about dark on the return but still not cold.
Pub: Eagle and Child, Staveley, for Kirkby Lonsdale, Singletrack and Allendale, Wolf.
