Still one place up for grabs in the 4 bedder.

Sounds like Wickla's dream - if only the other 3 were of the female species.

I'm upto leading the route from Skipton to the bunkhouse on Friday afternoon if you want to join me.
Is there anyone else out there want who wants to take the "Dales" route up.


What sort of time are you thinking of leaving, and from where in Skipton. I'm gonna stop near Melton Mowbray on Thursday night so I'm thinking 2.5 hours to Skipton and then a ride through the Dales could be in order. The route you posted looks good. good.gif

How about joining up at the Little Chef where the A65 and A59 meet, at the end of the Skipton bypass. Say about 12.30pm. Anyone else interested in meeting up there.

A suggested route for the sunday run,

up into kielder and through (those that want to do the hislop memorial cal leave the route at slaughtree) those that want to continue further south can remain on the route through some cracking roads to canonbie then longtown to hartside (amazingroads) again anyone wanting to head south can leave at alston or indeed at penrith, or could carry on to kirkstone pass and leave at windemere / kendal, those heading for the ferry at stranraer can follow me down the struggle to ambleside and up to keswick over the caldbeck fells to carlisle then onto dumfries / stranraer.

here's a pic

Could you confirm what the £30 was covering Joe? Was that including all bedding?

If there's a space left in the wee bunkhouse I wouldn't mind swapping cos I can't get a decent night's sleep when there's a lot of farters/snorers around - and it's my 69th burfday wub.gif


Yep - the price covers linen.

Dandy

that route is one of the two I sent you, BUT it is the one a few of us are following UP to Bellingham on Friday.

The second route I sent you is the St Mary's Loch - Buddhist retreat circular.

Soz if I created any confuzzlement.
