To Greystoke and Back

Our shortest route has no huge hills to tackle, but the lofty northern fells are an ever-present backdrop as you ride westwards along quiet country lanes to the pretty village of Greystoke and back, with plenty of refreshment stops en-route. And if you've time, a detour up to Greystoke Moor will open up even grander vistas.
