Over halfway and Kirkstone Pass

89 miles today and just over halfway in total. Rode over the Kirkstone Pass from Troutbeck and discovered two pints left behind the bar by Mark's friends and amateur stalkers Heather and Janice...didn't take long to finish those.

The descent to Ullswater was more of a plummet and carving the turns was made all the more interesting by Mark filming the ride from the rear of the Tandem.

Arrived at Dawn and Derek's house (Gus's relatives) rather late as we made some basic navigation errors (should really avoid hills) and broke some gear teeth on the freewheel in our favourite cruising gear. Must find a bike shop in Carlisle tomorrow before crossing the border to Scotland and almost certain rain!
