 I'm afraid I'm down with a bug but hoping the anti-biotics do the trick! However, the route is  HERE , adapted from a similar ride by Ernest. If anyone is available to take it on, please feel free to take it on and post a blog.

Meet at 9.30am at the car park on Central Avenue in Gretna.    The route goes mainly north on minor roads to Lockerbie where we will stop for refreshments at Cafe 91.   We continue to Bankshill, Middlebie, Eaglesfield and then to Chapelknowe and back to Gretna.   Apart from the lumpy 6 miles between Lockerbie and Bankshill the route is gently undulating.   Total distance will be 45 miles.     Moderate rainfall is forecast for all day.   Personally I like a bit of rain.   Light rain can make an otherwise uninteresting ride quite pleasant.   If necessary the ride can be shortened.  I hope to see someone on my ride.   The route is  here     Phone or text 07709710301 if you are coming.

 Armathwaite (meet at the bridge) up to Hartside via Croglin and Renwick. Down to Slaggyford, cafe at the Nook Farm Cafe, Return via Hallbankgate and Talkin. 45 miles but always feels hillier than the gpx route says, 3000 ft of ascent. The route takes the small road that peels off near the bottom of the Hartside road, Care is needed when turning right onto this.  Meet at 9.30 at Armathwaite Bridge  Should be a good day!
