Re: Adventure cycle festival
Can also recommend Tarn Foot Farm at Loughrigg Tarn for camping if you're that way inclined. Basic site but excellent. No shortage of great spots locally to bivvy though.
Re: Adventure cycle festival
Sounds perfect for a newbie such as I! As does an evening ride out to the Hawkeshead Brewery for dinner, then a bit of wild camping on Saturday night...

Re: Adventure cycle festival
Anyone planning to head out for some evening group rides? I'm going to order a ticket on payday and head up for it. Would be good to head out to the pub for a bite and pint and then divvy somewhere if anyone else is up for it? Would rather spend money on food and beer than campsite fee's anyway…

Yes. All planned, just someone needs to pull their finger out and post something up......A few things going on at the moment, but expect something within a couple of weeks.99percentchimp wrote:Paging Chew.... planning on being at this and joining your ride in from Oxenhope station on Friday afternoon.

Re: Adventure cycle festival
For some reason (probably age), I thought I was doing Sat and Sun but no ... and with just an hour allocated, it'll have to be a fairly brief look at the world of shelters and such. I'm sure no one will mind me over running
May the bridges you burn light your way
Re: Adventure cycle festival
Ah bugger, I'll be doing the Tuscany Trail.
Looks good though.

The video clip on the website is nice ; ) Wondered where that came in until I saw Bombtrack listed as a sponsor.
