Day one War of the Roses


Well it should read Way of the Roses but some of the hills east of Lancaster made me feel like I’d been at war.
Meet up for breakfast at the Art Deco Midland Hotel in Morecambe and then of course a photo shoot at Eric Morecombe’s statue on the lovely promenade. I believe there are plans to create a garden like the famous Cornish one and this could really rejuvenate what is a lovely seaside town.



The first 9 miles was along a wonderful cycle path, vert well signposted and with an excllent surface. Its worth going to Morecambe for this alone.










Lucky timing for lunch when it rained for an hour. The on over some of the most wonderful scenery in England. And what a joy to be able to take our time and see it all with hardly any traffic at all.

A great day finishing at Settle at about 4 0m after covering 30 miles. Now a rest and a nice meal tonight.

What a great start. I think your "War of the Roses" is more appropriate.
