Day 7: 30th May 2010. Hebden Bridge to Keswick. 90.5 miles

Maq Wierdigans
Outside Mama Weirdigans Hostel.
A very nice independent hostel which was comfortable
and very well presented.

Hebden Bridge.

 



Stage 7. Keswick was the re-booked destination. I decided to go across Wedell Moors direct to Colne.
A quick walk around Hebden Bridge was to cause trouble later as I ran over broken glasses and bottles left bt the Saturday night revellers. I climbed out of the village, towards heptonstall and within the first mile had a flat front tyre, Tube changed, nothing found, I carried on and found myself self into the teeth of a viscious cold North-Westerly wind. I'd also failed to spot the succession of 1:4 hills across the moor, so it took the best part of 2 hours to get to Colne where I arrived with a bdly hurting back which seemed to have clicked out on one of the climbs.
