Askham to Moffat.
An absolutely stonking tailwind out of Penrith this morning, accompanied by rain, resulted in us smashing out the first 50km (30 miles) in no time at all, putting us ahead of schedule, so had a leisurely early lunch in Gretna.
We're now in Scotland!! How crazy is that?
More rain soon after lunch, which then cleared in around Lockerbie, but not before we had our second lunch on the station platform.
The final drag into Moffat was long and uneventful, with more rain and a pesky and annoying headwind.
We arrived at our accommodation, checked in, showered and headed out for dinner. The evening was great, the clouds had lifted and the wind has dropped.
120km (75miles) for the day. Here's to another good day tomorrow as we head towards Edinburgh.
