2 bike ride to Acorn Bank from Langwathby Sunday 17 February

Sorry for the late post. My route will depart from Langwathby at 10 am tomorrow going to Skirwith (apologies for the bit which duplicates Nigel's Wednesday ride) and along the fellside beyond Milburn to turn down to Kirkby Thore and along to Acorn Bank. The return will be up the Newbiggin hill to Blencarn and up to Kirkland (to minimise duplication of the route out) and along the fellside to Melmerby. As I'm not sure about the food provision at Acorn Bank - we know the outdoor cafe is open but it could be very busy and limited to coffee and cake -  Melmerby Village Bakery is an alternative/additional cafe if needed. Probably a fairly direct return to Langwathby via Gamblesby turning left at the fork just outside Gamblesby to by-pass Glassonby.

For information, the usual Gamblesby to Glassonby road is thick with mud which I don't expect to be cleared any time soon!

Remember I am a slow rider so please wear plenty of clothes to avoid getting cold!

Looking forward to seeing some of you tomorrow - either on my ride or at Acorn Bank,
