We are on the trail, let me tell you: I have fallen in love with the Lake District. How beautiful, some of the most spectacular terrain I have cycled in for a long time.
Today we cycled from Windermere to Pooley Bridge, and we had to cross a particularly tough mountain. The climb involved some walking, and the descent was very technical. The attached photo is a view from the top of that dreaded hill. All in all we pedalled about 45 kilometers, unsure of the cumulitive ascend. Judging by the state of our legs it was plenty.
Off to find a pub for a good pint of bitter and some grub. Tomorrow's trail will be easier, we'll see ;)
Hasta la próxima

Good to hear that the first day has been such a wonderful day; in a beautiful scenery of the lake district. Keep on going!
