Day 9 -Eccleston to Lancaster 37 miles




A late breakfast this morning as it was a shorter ride today so ate my way through porridge with maple syrup toast and boiled eggs, loaded up and hit the road. Despite the forecast it was a sunny ride to Lancaster and apart from a unpleasant ride through Preston, I then broke through to the Lancashire countryside. This is a place of canals, cows in long grass and wide rivers . The ride into Lancaster followed a cycle path along by the river Lune and loads of families were out on their bikes. I weaved my way through them and eventually arrived in the town centre. Having checked in and showered I decided to find somewhere to eat. I found a good Italian restaurant and had some great olives and tasty  chicken with two glasses of white wine. All in all a good day!
