Cycle ride: Lancaster University-Galgate-Glasson-Lancaster

This afternoon was clear and sunny, so I took a longer-than-usual route home from work.

Considering I've lived in Lancaster for 12½ years, including ~3 in Galgate itself, it's surprising that I've only followed the Glasson Branch canal about three times. Linking the main Lancaster Canal at Galgate with the sea port of Glasson (Glasson Dock), the five miles of grassy towpath with six locks are attractive, particularly in spring.

The annotations accompanying the photos speak for themselves, and provide links back to a previous bike ride which explains the route, so I'll just let you read them.
