Loughrigg and Hodge close, a bit cold early on but turned out lovely.
Forgot how hard it is the get back up to speed after a winter of doing nowt. 🙁
Loughrigg Terrace was a bit busy to put it mildly, red socks everywhere, but all friendly and pleasant.

And lastly a quick hour run on the Kona SS yesterday, with the Ribble/Merlin bargain Deore brakes, very impressed with them and for the money you can’t go wrong.

Sorry about the piccies not being great, but I seem to be $h1t at taking photos ?
Jealous.
I've been trying to keep two kids happy whilst nursing a farked knee.
And I wish my pics were as rubbish as that.
Hey Chief, I clicked on one of the bike pics for a closer look and found myself inside your Flickr album, looking at all kinds of stuff. Worth setting up a public access album if it bothers you?
Excellent!
I must start riding again.
cheers globalti, I'll look into that, I don't think there is anything that I am not happy for it to be public, but I'll check
Nice pickkies -where is the woody bit?

was rydal cold on the feet?
No, we went high and right to the cave, I think the lake would have been too high to navigate the shore route
