Hi guys and gals just one for the diary hope you can all make it

#jennride2022 will be on the 28th/29th of May . 300 places will be made available. A £5 fee will get you a place which will be made available via Eventbrite, that cost covers expenses like toilet hire and event boards. I will be setting up a Just Giving fundraising page which we have done every year since the ride in memory of Jenn started. Just Giving is a preferred way of collecting £ss as St Gemmas Hospice receives extra via Gift Aid.
Entries will go live on the 7th of January which is Friday @ 7pm

Deffo!

Fingers crossed I can get off work for this as would be my first.

Route is heading North this year so Gatesgarth Pass is a warm up

160 tickets have been snapped up don't be late to the party!

Rich

Been a long time since I rode for a hospice and I miss it so have entered. Plus it'll get me out of gear to sort the brakes on the mtb.

Thanks Rich...

my fave bike do of the year. pissed off i cant enter this year. AF and lakes riding does not make a happy recipe.........

Have signed up, never been to the Lake District before and have heard so many good things about this

I'll be there on your behalf Ton to keep the Dewsbury/Leeds end up...

Also booked in Gatesgarth push with a loaded bike will be fun- If he is really cruel he will have us push back up to do Nan Bield

Tom and I are looking forward to this.

Will be good to see some new faces with the old uns
233 signed up which is ace after only two days.
Rough route will be Gatesgarth from Staveley skirt Haweswater, Bampton Fell Pooley Bridge to Dockray Old Coach Road Threkeld Lonscale Fell. Keswick Check in at Alpkit then Portinscale to do the Borrowdale Bash in reverse . Seathwaite Stockley Bridge up to Sty Head then down to Wasdale over Burnmoor to Boot. Then road over Kirkstone and Wrynose to the Little Langdales check in at Ambleside Alpkit Jenkins back to Staveley as Javier Simon would say Easy Peesy .
Route is a guideline and people sometimes miss a loop this route might inhibit this

Thanks for organising this once again Rich. This was my first ever bikepacking event (last year) and I thoroughly enjoyed it, looking forward to it again!
