Lakes Weekend Away – Chapeau!

Just a quick thank you to Graham for organising the Lakes Weekend Away. I’m particularly impressed that he was able to book such fine weather to coincide with his 40th!

Looking forward to seeing the pics and reading the ride reports from Walna Scar and the Borrowdale Bash.

Funnily enough, no one seemed keen to join Dene, Shearer, Kev and I on our Ambleside to Keswick mission. It ws a biggish day with some 8 hours of pretty much non stop riding (and carrying!). The descents were super technical and the views stunning. Heck, we even managed to get back in daylight which was a pleasant surprise.

Yesterday was Ullock Pike off Skiddaw and the silly steep descent off Doups. If you like steep, loose and rocky technical descending, you’d struggle to find anything steeper, looser or rockier. At times, it felt more like falling with style than riding as we plummeted down to the valley floor.

Cheers

Sanny
