    Cracking ride last night with the Tuesday night group from Keswick and Cockermouth, what a great group, made me feel very welcome. Borrowdale Bash was the route for the night and what an awesome ride, plenty of ups, some great descents, and of course loads of punctures on the ride down to Rosthwaite which was good to see everyone stopping to help and let the others catch up. And then finally a well deserved pint in the Bank Tavern to catch up on rides, routes and stuff. Thanks again for letting me tag along.

    I ride Whinlatter and borrowdale bash quite a bit and I think I prefer whinlatter, the bash just seems a lot of road riding and honister is just a slog up. Mbr had a extended route the other month which I would like to try goes up honister then down into buttermere I think. Enjoy!!!!

    I live on a good estate been broken into twice once through door of garage second time they took roof off. Now I’ve got ram rods in front on the door, roof has got reinforced sheeting underneath, ground anchor with chain and cable and fitted a good alarm. Only other option I’ve thought of is to wire the bikes to the mains for the shock factor!!!!

    I use my LTc all year round for all trails and its great, I’ve had yeti 575 in a medium but opted for a large SC LTc and it is honestly best thing I’ve ever ridden. I have a soul for winter but doesn’t really get used much as I cant stay off the SC

    I’ve had the LTc for a year now after having yeti 575’s in the past, the bike is absolutely the best thing ever – climbs fantastic and descends brilliantly, rode everything from 7 Staines to local rides and it gives me so much confidence to attack anything. Had to change shock bushes a few too many times but wouldn’t change it for anything… Get one!!!!!
