LEJOG Day10 Redmayne House B&B Kirkby Stephens to Carlisle Premier Inn

Today's route is mostly on quiet roads, the climbs coming as you more closely follow the River Eden. Leaving Kirkby Stephens I chose to avoid the climb to Soulby instead I worked my way round using the lanes. When I arrived in Appleby it was the time of the annual Horse Fair and several of the roads had been closed off to motor traffic. Not a big problem for a cyclist but it needed care to negotiate my way through the crowds and horses.
