To answer; mo...Hey Bob, <br /><br />Thanks for the congrats.<br /><br />To answer; most of it is on bike/pedestrian paths though there are sections on B roads and even a short bit on a dual carriageway. You can generally tell the difference; if there are rock walls, it's a road. The last 30 miles or so is primarily a converted railway right-of-way with gentle grades. Pedestrian and equestrian rights-of-way are entrenched in the laws of the country and some have been assigned as cycle routes.<br />The roads over the highest peaks, Hartside and Nenthead, are main roads but traffic is sparse.<br /><br />I'm keen to do another route.Bicycle Tourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03990676114308856246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6932682654650785194.post-15436450837852706172011-05-24T20:01:53.872-04:002011-05-24T20:01:53.872-04:00Hi there,

I'm so impressed and want to congratulate you. The scenery looks gorgeous, I've looked at many of the videos. Are those all roads that cars can go on? When I first started watching, I assumed it was a bicycle path in the middle of the country. Incredible. It makes our roads look so .... industrial and ugly. <br /><br />En tout cas ... big congratulations. Looks heavenly.Bobnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6932682654650785194.post-29444064968691932822011-05-23T20:34:09.103-04:002011-05-23T20:34:09.103-04:00So far, great bike paths and the buildings in the ...So far, great bike paths and the buildings in the city.
