Crazy beautiful! With a lot of hills and the clear reminder that it’s always worth to go up the hill. For the views! Started with a super nice road. Down through mountains, no cars! Landed in Ingleton and they had, to my surprise, a great outdoor shop where I could buy. New sleeping mat. Lots of cave explorers here. Continued through empty uphill streets, met a bicyclists who celebrated his birthday on the road. The day started cloudy but turned into a sunny one. At the end of the day I found a little pub which hands down the best pie I ever had!
