Don't really have a postcode ...just keep going straight ahead when you come into town and it's on the left above the public toilets . It's a one way system so you can't really miss it .. Not speaking for anyone else from the northeast ..but I will be giving this a bodyswerve...have fun ! As with Graham the only route that would interest me is Timbo's Rosedale route ..it looks a cracker...but as we didn't commit to the ride we can't really complain ...

Looks like I have a meeting in Workington on the 10th now, so I'm staying over there and meet you guys on Saturday! Might even have time for a quick blast around Whinlatter on the Friday afternoon after my "exciting" meeting...if anyone fancies it as well!?

Roundie, bowderdale/howgills was decided upon, bring your climbing legs as it's quite a stiff pull up the calf to start with.

There's one steep bit of a field climb up and over an hump which is a challenge, I think it's the first false summit, nearly got there, then there's a steep loose climb which is the second false summit I think, got nowhere near it, I think we all pushed.
Once at the top of the calf it's all down hill..........until an awful road climb before arguably the best stuff starts.

Just found the Mrs is working the weekend. I could have dropped the kids with my mum on the Sunday but Saturday is too tricky due to gym and swim clubs and then a pool party they are both going to in the afternoon. As the youngest is below a certain age I have to go on the pool with her, joy.
So I've been stitched up like a frigging kipper. Will have to make do a short early morning spin out.
