Hi folks,
Just a reminder about the lakes trip. This trip is definately going ahead.
The campsite is here:
Its in a wee village called Chapel Stile, just 7 miles from Ambleside. Takes about 2.5 hours to drive from Glasgow, so those who just want a weekend can manage it too. For those who don’t fancy camping, there is lots of choice of B&B’s, and a hostel in Ambleside. The village has one country pub, and another one a mile away.
The thinking is that there is loads of choice of riding down here, including road stuff, so don’t be put off. Its as much about a social weekend away somewhere very nice as it is about the riding.
For those wanting mega stuff, there’s the High Road near Ullswater which is about 20 mins away, and there is lots of choice for single track too.
Anyway, more the merrier, mixed abilities/bike types welcome.
If this hasn’t persuaded you its a good idea, jsut remember very few midges down there! Can’t say the same for the ticks, mind.
Me, Dawn, John and Ryz are definately going (unless Iron (Wo)Man kills Dawn next week!) And, a couple of biking mates from Wales.
