Ride 22 12 2022 Lancaster and South Lakes Cycle Touring Club

Leaving Millenium bridge we went down the cycle track(I had been down to reconnoiter before we tried!) then we went up Aldcliffe Hall Lane and through Aldcliffe village to join the main road to Condor Green. Going to Thurnham via Jeremy Lane and Moss Lane allowed us to get to Cockerham. Using the B5272 we got to Ratcliffe Wharf Lane and turned left. We crossed the A6 onto Hollins Lane for a short spell. Then we flew down Cleveley Bank then right at the junction to descend into Scorton for an early lunch as it was nearly Christmas.

Refreshed now, so we went back out of Scorton to Harris End crossroads then left and down through Street. I went past Five Lane Ends(others turned right to go along “happy valley!) and into Galgate. Home via a deserted Uni(what bliss). Yes a short ride but Christmas is a coming(and the cyclists are getting fat! please put a tot in the old man’s glass hee hee)

Merry Christmas to everybody and here’s to many more miles in 2023(I am leaving a tot of whisky for Father Christmas on Christmas Eve !! but only blended I’ll save the malt for myself).
