Start at Greystoke carpark 9.30 am  The route is a approx 45 miles and moderately hilly, though there are options to shorten sections on the day / avoid the odd extra hill!  Garmin GPX is  HERE   I was going to lead this ride but am laid up with a lurgy of some sort so Gill Sharpe has gallantly offered to lead it.  The route heads out of greystoke to cross the A66 and head down to Matterdale. Then the route takes a loop around the hill just west of Dockray, so there is an option for some to leave this but out.

The ride will start from Central Ave car park in Gretna at 9.30am.   The route to Langholm will be 25 miles on roads some of them I have not ridden before on a club outing.  The route will probably be a novelty for others.    Lunch will be at Whitshiels Cafe and I will make a provisional booking.   Thereafter the route takes a more predictable path to Claygate and and back to Gretna via Penton & Longtown. The route is here .   Contact me on 07709710301 if you are coming.   The total distance is 55 miles. At the moment the forecast is for rain much of the day.    Should be fun 😱 If the gpx route is not shown, click on ‘READ MORE’ and you will see it.
