Anyone else doing this tomorrow (20th October)? Looks as if it may be somewhat moist!

8500ft - apparently so, according to the organisers website. My Bryton however recorded it as 5400ft but there were areas of poor gps reception.

I didnt ride it as I was away, looks like the weather's been poor. My mate got the quickest time by the looks of it.

Well done on the finish!

60miles, 8500ft of climbing in under 4 1/2 hrs in that weather is bloody good going. Chapeau sir 🙂

A mate tried to get me to enter this, but I didn't get time to get the the miles in practice.
Gonna do the Cumbrian cracker on the 17 of nov instead.
Fair play for riding this route today, poor weather in the south lakes. Was it a good turn out?
