I'm currently treating this as a single pair, and putting the spare read in as a non-paired read. What if we did some primer walking, so we have multiple overlapping reads at both ends of the fragment? Manually pre-merge these and give them to MIRA as a pair of long composite reads? I will of course try a few things and see how I get on, but it is nice to know what others have found works.
