From Crag Lough

The gang (pictured by Laetitia above; Pete, Anna, Paul and Ian, accompanied by Kelda, Ian’s border collie) headed off to Longsledale for quite a long (16 mile) mountain bike ride this past weekend.
We had planned to go to Gimmer today, but like so many a “plan A”, it was changed last minute to White Ghyll (picture right). The reason; although sunny and warm we decided it was too windy to be up high in Langdale. It was a wise choice as the wind was bitingly cold!
Scout Scar is a new location for us, surprising as it’s the closest crag to our home. With easy access from Kendal, a super short walk in (just ten minutes), and amazing views of Morecombe Bay, Kentmere and the central fells - a top spot.
Is there a better way to end a work day than a trip to Borrowdale (despite the long drive from the South) to grab a route and a beer?
The BBC spends a lot of money (our license fees) on weather forecasting!
Will the hot weather ever come to an end?
On a wonderful hot summer day we headed out to Crag Lough (below Hadrian’s Wall) after a full breakfast, thanks to Andy!
Just how many punctures can you get on a mountain biking trip around Kentmere?
We gate crashed Andy and Sabiene’s Kalymnos reunion party to check out the pictures from the gang’s recent trip there with the aim of inspiring another trip later this year.
