Bike ride to Carnforth

Distance: 19.21 miles
Average speed: 7.9 mph
Maximum speed: 14.3 mph


I had intended to do this yesterday but the back tyre was flat again, a replacement inner tube was required. I managed to get that sorted out at Halfords so made the trip today.




Looking over from the aqueduct, building work on the bypass can be seen.


From the other side of the aqueduct, Lancaster castle in the background.


One of the many bridges along the route, these really slow things down as it is almost impossible to see whether anyone is coming in the opposite direction.




More work on the bypass.


Finally into Carnforth and a visit to the station for a much needed sit down, cup of tea and sandwich.





 Luckily I had no Brief Encounter with any grit in my eye!





Back home along the same route.


The Ashton memorial comes into sight.
