Good Day
Well folks, a good time had by all.
We had 4 people - us two, Andrew and Big Lee setting off from Keswick at 11.00
Over Whinlatter Pass and on to Cockermouth, Maryport and Allonby.
Then tea at Mawbray and Fish and Chips at Silloth. Following that was a trip round the Anthorn, Bowness-on-Solway and Port Carlisle 'island'.
Up to Carlisle and the A69 road to Brampton, then turned of to Alston. This is where the rain came down very heavy and I discovered that my Richa £199 jacket is as waterproof as a bath robe - soaked right through.
Its going back to the shop.........
At Alston Andrew headed off back to Newcastle and we carried on to Harside for a dry out then back to Penrith - Keswick and A66 to home. Stayed dry from Hartside !!
Looking forward to the next ride out - a great day - cheers guys !!
For those who could not make it - see you next time.
