Along with work colleague Bill and his EK Road Club pal Archie I enjoyed a 73 mile cycle from Moffat. We headed south on minor roads to Wamphreygate and up to Boreland and Corrie Common, and then down on the B7068 with a nice following wind into Langholm. We had a tea and soup stop at the Whitshiels Cafe,and then headed down south on the A7 for a few miles, before going on to some nice undulating country roads - B720, B6357 - with a not-so-nice headwind, on to Evertown and then Kirkpatrick Fleming. It was then up parallel to the M74, through Ecclefechan and Lockerbie with added rain for the last few miles from Johnstonbridge and Wamphrey. 73 miles/1130 metres ascent, 5hrs of cycling, average 15.6 mph,116 bpm average,2372 cal.
