Is anyone free tomorrow or Wednesday for a ride in the Lakes?
Hoping to meet Stu on Tuesday and would like to try to organise something for the day before or after.
I'm looking to get experience taking different groups out for the MTB guide qualification. Happy to devise a route round Staveley, Grizedale or anywhere really. Or perhaps the Borrowdale Bash. Equally if anyone [suitably capable] wants to do an epic like the Four Passes then that would be great.
Let me know....

Yeah with more than 21 hours notice I could of booked some time off but far too short to ask for it now.
Friday could work for me too if either of you can...
Have PMed you my number.
Cheers
Hi Duncan, Golf, Anyone else,
I've booked two house viewings in the Lakes on Thursday. If either of you wants to join for a ride on Friday then I'll stay over Thursday night.
If I'm doing that then I'll need to book the return train journey from the lakes for my partner, so would be good to know by Tuesday (or this evening if that is possible.)
Pmd you Fridays a goer
Just put a request in to book Friday off, weather is looking good!
Righto.
10:30 departure from Keswick Friday 18 June.
Borrowdale Bash with a Walla Starter, possible diversion to Black Moss Pot for a swim if it is hot.
Potential extensions are available if we want them.
Golfchick and Duncan confirmed. Stu and Phil may join us as well if they're bored of the Stanes. If anyone else fancies it then let me know.
PS, anyone know a sensible place to park at least three vehicles in/ near Keswick?
Swimming pool used to be free, but I'm guessing it's not now that they've finished the railway cycle path.
PS. Hoping to do the 4 passes on Saturday, but that'll depend slightly on how Friday goes. Still not feeling quite well and will have biked 6 days out of 8 by that point so may be gubbed.
Sent you the coords for the road where I've parked the couple of times I've done the bash.
Wheres the start point?
Free points either threkald as I've sent you or behind the filling station cafe near the pump track......
Brundleholme rd from memory
Bump for the start point!
Soz, been out riding.
10:30 start at the suspension footbridge ( east side) that GolfChick linked to above.
Awesome see you both there, hope you're ready for the best slice of golden syrup loaf that you ever tasted!
Looking forward to it.
Dont kill me I've not been riding in the lakes for a year and my miles are low due to life getting in the way.
Looking forward to a pint of Jennings After as well🍺
**** me
It's absolutely scorchio. Full disclosure, I've failed on the BBash every time due to too much heat. 😝
