Day 9

47 miles, 2100 feet, 3 hours 45 mins Plus 30 mins breaks. Not a great day for luck. Train an hour late due to some sort of incident that required a posse of police to search the train twice for a suspect. Picked up the bike and set off only to realise 10 mins later that I had forgotten helmet. Then it started to rain which continued on and off for the rest of the trip. Reached Scotland. Took photos of Gretna green chapel.Not a great cycle way thereafter as one of those where the cycle way is merely a marked part of the normal road. Last 30 mins very nice as raining finally stopped and I went off the cycle way onto a minor road to Moffat. Seems quite prosperous. Pub fairly full of diners.
