EITHER:
A682 Long Preston
A65 Kirby Lonsdale
OR:
"From Tickled Trout head E on A59, turn L at lights onto B6245 to Ribchester, then Longridge but turn R before town onto B6243 at Corporation Arms. Follow this into Clitheroe, past train station then L onto B6478 towards Waddington. Continue to Newton-in-Bowland, bear L through village to Dunsop Bridge then R after DB. This road takes you up a valley onto the moor ( v pretty) past jubilee tower. When you start to drop off the moor there is a steepish descent to a crossroad at Dolphinholme turn R ( think its signposted to Queernmoor) keep on to a nasty T junction, Turn R to Caton. T at Caton turn R onto A683 to Hornby then Melling, watch out for L sharp bend immediately after bridge over river following a nice straight. Turn L at T junction and Devils Bridge is about 500 yds on the right."

Take A683 heading North
Turn right at Junction of A685 - through Kirkby Stephen to Brough
Turn left at junction onto A66 through Appleby-in-Westmorland towards Penrith

John said he would buy you SEVERAL icecreams, and loads of cake if you go! (Sorry John, I have to try all methods of persuasion!!)
Ooh ice cream....bugger Slimming world is gonna suffer AGAIN....oh and then you mentioned cake. Damn it woman I ain't fitting into any of the three frocks I bought for Debs' wedding if you carry on like that.
JOHN...I blame you entirely!!!!!
Right-oh everyone, come on this is a good day out. I will put a good weather order in just in case John's forgotten.
Roll up, roll up, get the bikes out, fill the tanks (clean em if you are that way inclined) and get ready for a good day out.
