Hot, Hot, Hot! Jim Gardner

What do they say only English men and mad dogs go out in the mid day sun, well I am English so fall into one category.

Set off not really know where or how far I was going. Through the uni into Galgate then up Stoney Lane to the Harris End cross roads. Turned right to drop down into and through Scorton(I ignored the temptation of the water splash). Through Garstang and past the ‘road closed ahead’ got to the closure and found it really was closed so back tracked and went down Dimples Lane and weaved my way through Inglewhite to Goosnargh. From Goosnargh to Broughton crossroads (WOW what a difference) quick stop for lunch then on towards Hollowford Lane and Benson Lane to cross the A6 at Bilsborough. Up past the church to turn left down Lydiate Lane then home via Sandham Mill, Scorton and Bay Horse.

Pleasant ride and my advice is if you want to loose weight cycling in that sort of heat works, I lost half a kilogram but probably the two cans of beer put it back on.
