Will save that for later in the year.<br />There are afew others of yours that Ive saved to try as well. <br />I got a memory map for my bday, so it's much appreciated that you post the routes. <br /><br />I'll be on Brian's hostel trip to Torver in April, so may very well see you on some of those rides. Hoping to made the Dufton wkend too, but there are some tours I fancy doing, so not sure yet.

One area you should try is Longsleddale and Kentmere valley for your next stay at Windermere YHA or at Kendal YHA. I would also recommend doing a ride down Shap Borrowdale see link http://www.southlakesgroup.org.uk/2012photogallery/september/29th.html which is best done in early Summer to see wild flower meadow at top of Borrowdale.Simeon Ormehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02993125716312103829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5650039851250059406.post-89045261522043970252013-01-22T10:21:08.608-08:002013-01-22T10:21:08.608-08:00Ooh thanks - but no, none are hdl - not tried that...Ooh thanks - but no, none are hdl - not tried that technique yet, but it's something I'm hoping to explore soon (when I find a good way to transport the tripod on the bike). I bought Stephen a camera course of 6 classes for his birthday, so we've been putting into practise what he learned. <br /><br />There's a funny pic I didnt upload (pride) of my face when my brakes decided to have no effect at stopping me on the snow - thankfully I was going slow, so it was a soft slo-mo comedy slide.
