Still had trouble getting out of Hebden this morning but finally got the right road to Slack. Some good moorland cycling past The Packhorse Inn and Wippup Reservoirs. Got to Cowling ( proposed stop for last night) at lunchtime. Lovely day with quite strong sunshine and the lovely Yorkshire and Lancs countryside. Had an afternoon stop at Gargrave and pushed on to Settle. There the weather broke with a clap of thunder and torrential rain. Waited out the worst of it under a tree but had to carry on. Got to Horton at about 5:30 and was so wet, decided to carry on to Hawes - another 18 miles. It was a really hard push but the rain stopped, the sun came out and there was a rainbow over Pen Y Ghent. Had a fish supper in Hawes as couldn't face yet another Pasta 'n' Sauce, then found a good little campsite at Hardraw, just up the road.
