I'm up in t'Lakes next weekend (yay!) and I'll have one, possibly two evenings free for a play out on the bike. If the weather is good (ha!) I think I'll go up Ullock Pike (Millbeck > Dodd Wood > White Stones > Carl Side then off down Ullock and back on the road. Does that sound like a reasonable plan?
Also could do an out and back to Skiddaw House, is there anything else to consider? Maybe Blencathra?
I'm sure I posted about this a while back but I can't find it, so sorry about that.
Pedal out to Braithwaite, up coledale and make your way up onto grisedale pike. Thank me later. 😊
Ullock Pike via Dodd Wood / White stones isn't a bad route, done it a good few times last summer as an evening ride. Also Whinlatter / Grizedale Pike / HobCarton is a good shout, as is Blencathra, park at Threlkeld, up Blease Fell thenonto Blencathra and down Scales
Coledale Hause, Whiteless Pike, Rigg Beck return. Doesn't get dark until late these days, does it?
If you want a quicker/more exciting way down Blencathra, descend Doddick fell.
What's Doddick Fell like, all ridable? Compare to anything else in the Lakes?
