Thanks to Ray & Tony for organising this great ride for us. Tougher than I thought it was going to be, particularly from the Haweswater side. We parked in Kentmere, where there's a small field open for parking just before the Church. Rode over a good trail to Sadgill, which is at the southern end of the pass, the ascent from the south is fairly easy. Going down towards Haweswater there's a lot of loose rocks on the trail and I knew then that it was going to be a tough climb back up. We had a rest & a chat in the little car park at the southern tip of Haweswater, then it was back up the pass. We had to make a few stops on the way back up as it was quite technical over the steep & loose track and some of us got a bit stuck here & there. It was quite a relief to get to the top, where we had a break and watched some old Landrovers come up. After that the descent back down into Sadgill and then over to Kentmere was a very pleasant ride in the lovely sunshine. When we got back to the car park, I just didn't have the energy to go back and do it again. Cheers to everybody who came, what a great day, we enjoyed it nearly as much as the Marshalls, who were pissing themselves watching us  |

So the camera was pointing downwards most of the time, that's why I can't show the other guys riding, sorry. Then I fell off and it goes sideways! Hoping for a better result in future.

Just been watching the results from my action cam. A real improvement on the last try [4 hrs of my front wheel ]. Don't know how to do youtube yet, but will try & sort out some discs for the Gatescarth lads. Anyone not done this trail yet, get booked on its ******* Briliant. Big thanks to all who were there , a great day out. Hope the two lads we met on the way are ok, hows the blown engine?
