LEJOG Day 9 (15 day route) - Carlisle YH to Kendoon YH

A reasonably flat route through quiet roads once you leave Carlisle. Passing the famous Blacksmiths at Gretna Green.  The A75 part of our route is not pleasant though and I suggest an alternative for that section. The stretch across to Kendoon though is fabulous. http://www.pewseys.co.uk

Day 10 route - http://www.bikemap.net/route/380936



lots of ground to cover. have come all the way up as little accomodation before and want to keep away from cities as much as possible. Big day on the climbs though!!

My route from the Premier Inn Carlisle avoids some of Carlisle's traffic by following a footbridge over the River Eden through Rickerby Park then onwards to the A7 northbound. There is a new and quiet road on the west side of the M6 which avoids having to take the A7 to Longtown. I also avoided Dumfries by using some quiet B and unclassified roads. By chance I met up my wife for lunch at Drumlanrig Castle and there visited the Scottish Cycle Museum.

When I booked our accommodation at the Black Addie Country House Hotel in Sanquhar I hadn't noticed that the chef had been awarded a Michelin star in the past. The stay was a memorable experience though something of an expensive treat.
