whitestoneFree MemberWe’re in! The 100 for us. I think I just pushed it through the 3K target 😆
martinhutchFull MemberI’ll see some of you for at least the first four minutes. 😀
IvanDobskiFree MemberWhen and where? (Not on Facebook and can’t be the only one!)
whitestoneFree MemberI’m not on FB either – Staveley outside the Hawkshead Brewery on the 19th May 2017
postierichFree MemberSorry non face bookers !
A Bike packing event, you chose the distance 100 miles of sweet rideable BWs or if you have the legs 200 kilometres of Lakeland fells which will involve a bit of hikeabike. A great ride devised by Alan Goldsmith. Both routes will have downloadable routes for you to follow and you can even do it the old school way using a map!.
Start point will be the Staveley Millyard next to More Bakery and Hawkshead Brewery, entry will be by donation of your choice to St Gemmas Hospice in memory of Jenn Hill.

Leave your name please once you have donated on the page so I can keep track of numbers 🙂
Please share and show an interest on this page and keep the weekend free . Thanks for reading 🙂

Simply donate £20 or more for each rider via the Just Giving Page aand drop Rich an email to the address on the first postpostierichFree MemberNo set donation just what you want to/can afford 🙂
The 100 will be 98% rideable this year as you will be going up Garburn the right way this year 🙂
looking like a 70/30% split between the 100mile and the 200km routesdazhFull MemberI was just thinking about this earlier. In for the 200. First bike-packing event, probably bitten off more than I can chew!
whitestoneFree Member@dazh – sorry to break it to you but the Lakeland 200 is one of the harder of the short ITTs – well those I know who’ve done/tried it say so and I’ve no reason to doubt them given their ride history. Don’t know how many try it but here’s the current success list: http://www.selfsupporteduk.net/routes/Lakeland200.html
There hasn’t been a group start on the LL200 yet so it will be interesting to see how that changes the dynamic. Doing a route like that as a genuine ITT is a much different proposition to a group start – I did the 2015 YD200 as an ITT and I think I saw three other riders in 14hrs and no-one, not even walkers, for the last 80Km.
After that load of negativity, the 100 mile is a relaxed affair with occasional economies with the route 😆 I’m doing the 100 mile ride as I’ve something on the following week 😉
dazhFull MemberYeah I’m under no illusions as to what I need to do to get round. I can cope with that amount of riding, it’s the hike-a-bike that concerns me 🙂
whitestoneFree MemberGet as many overnight rides done as you can to sort out what you need kit wise, if you are ruthless then you can get away with very little which will make the riding a lot easier. On the first YD300 I had 10Kg of kit, on the second I knew what I was doing and had 4Kg (inc food).
Cutting out faffage time makes a big difference as well: even at the low overall speeds you’ll be doing, five minutes not moving forward is around a kilometre in distance. Quite often the difference in actual riding time between riders is very little but the slower rider sat in a cafe for 40mins not 20, etc.
NorthCountryBoyFree MemberCheers Rich
been meaning to get this done for weeks. Done it now. Great time last year. Please get the same weather booked!
I rode back some of the last leg with you after the impromptu breakfast in Ambleside!
See you there!postierichFree MemberYour in the “nutter class” Greg!!! hopefully catch up for a few pints in the Brewery the night before.
What are peoples ideas on start time for the 200 group start(not compulsory)
Rich
whitestoneFree MemberWhat are peoples ideas on start time for the 200 group start(not compulsory)
How similar are the starts of the two routes this year? I’d be inclined to let the 200 group start head off first, if only by a few minutes, so that us leisure riders don’t get in their way.
postierichFree MemberA few pics from the 200 I did a few years ago !

My successful 200 write up
http://sometimesridesbikes.blogspot.co.uk/2014/06/lakeland-200-mountain-bike-itt.html
Oh, and when Tom and I gave it a go on the tandem.
http://minipips.blogspot.co.uk/2016/03/a-couple-of-days-in-lakes-with-tandem.html
Be assured the 200 though not that much further than the 100, is a very different beast, especially if the weather is gash.
postierichFree MemberI was thinking a 6am start for the 200(km) and as last year a 9.30am start for the 100(miles)
They head in different directions at the start!
If it was me I would be starting at 6pm on the Friday 🙂jkomoFull MemberWould this be a good introduction to bike packing? Should be fine with the distance and some of the kit, but having never done it before what would I need- apart from tent sleeping bag and mat, stove and food?
whitestoneFree MemberIt’s a good route taking in most of the good bridleways in the south and south east of the Lakes, Rich isn’t too strict on how exact you are with the route – last year I think everyone had their own variations at some point!
The kit *you* need is likely to be different from everyone else. Sorry, didn’t mean to sound flippant or patronising but you can stand at the start line and wonder how others manage to pack all their stuff in such small bags and feel totally inadequate. A lot will depend on the weather – last year was lovely but got a little cold overnight, but this year could be horizontal rain or dull or …
Unless you’ve a seriously light tent (around the 1Kg mark) then you might be carrying more than you really need, if it rains then you’ll be the one laughing. I’d do a few overnight rides local to you so you can figure out what works and what doesn’t. Somewhere like the Lakes you can get away without a stove, pub meal in early evening, grab some snacks for breakfast.
Here’s my bike set up for this year’s Yorkshire Dales 300 ITT.
I used a similar setup – swapped the frame bag for two stem cells and got rid of the fuel pod for the BB200 in October.
Obviously with such minimal gear you aren’t likely to get a night’s sleep like you would in the Ritz but it’s surprising just how comfy you can make yourself with very little. It does take practice though.
Worth looking and asking on the Bearbones forums – lots of us frequent both places. Stuart the guy who runs things also does reviews and blogs about techniques so those are worth looking at.
postierichFree MemberIts fairly low level with opportunities to cut a loop out if needs must.Lots of places to refuel without having to carry lots of food/drink. If the weather is favourable its a great introduction.
postierichFree MemberMmmmmmStooge 🙂
If this pic does not sell the event nothing will 🙂
[url=https://flic.kr/p/H3RKoN]Untitled[/url] by Richard Munro, on FlickrnedrapierFull MemberRich, you know these trails, Puffin w. 4″JJs or Swift with 100mm up front? 🙂 For the 100.
postierichFree MemberI used Nates on my Puffin last year never felt a thing!!and they were perfect! we had a cross bike complete it last year! 😯
BustaspokeFree MemberRich,I’ve just donated.Put me down for the 100 miles please & will I survive on a cross bike? 😯
brennakFull MemberSent an email for the 100, going singlespeed, 4mph but using all 20 gears to maintain it, hopefully 😕
GregMayFree MemberYour in the “nutter class” Greg!!! hopefully catch up for a few pints in the Brewery the night before.
I will take that as a complement.
Not planning to carry anything other than the bike. It’ll be reet.
Also – I’m not drinking as much the night before…or riding the fully loaded TD bike either 🙂

also donated hopefully a place left.
