A solitary (T) cycle ride to test riding post ankle break.Route: from 1-2 Midtown cycling past the shop to turn left at the mid-Lorton crossroads to take the Hopebeck Road, climbing slowly and then descending to rejoin the recently resurfaced main road to climb to Scale Hill and descend past the Lanthwaite Wood car park.
At the next crossroads, turning left to take the minor road (a rather less good road surface) bending right to reach the pub. After a pint, along the Thackthwaite road home.
Conditions: sunny and warm though not hot. Easily warm enough to sit outside the pub in the shade.
Pub: the Kirkstile Inn for Cumbrian Ales Session IPA.
