Lake District - 26th - 30th May

13 May 2011

I've managed to 'swing' a few days off at the end of the month so thought I'd have a tour around the Lake District on my bike. I intend to stay in a central location and ride out each day from there. So I'm looking for the following:
Places to stay (B/B or hotels with a nice pub nearby!):cheers:
Places to visit
Invites for a cuppa and a muffin
Join me on a ride out
Routes to ride
Anything else :twisted:
I have no set plans for that long weekend, other than travelling around and enjoying the scenery and biking.
If you have any suggestions or would like to meet, either drop me a line on here or by PM.
Oh, and this is just me as Sarah is not a biking fan :sad:
see y'all soon! lol

Pics available, including the bike! :grin:

The north lakes are much quieter if you like to escape.

I'm now confirmed as staying in Ambleside from Thursday 26th until Monday 30th.
If anyone would like to meet up whilst I'm there, just let me know, even if it's just for a cuppa and a muffin. I'm also looking for tea stops on the way there or on the way back.
If anyone knows of good biking roads around the Lakes or would like to join me on a ride out, just post on here or by PM.
TTFN! lol

PS - shags and BJs gratefully accepted!! :twisted:

Just a quick bump! lol

I'm still in Ambleside, had some great ride outs during the last few days, but no meets! :sad:
If you would like to meet, even just for cuppa, just let me know either on here or by PM.
I will be leaving here on Monday and may be staying Monday night in the NorthWest area, possibly Manchester. So if you fancy a meet tomorrow or tomorrow night let your fingers do the walking and get typing! wave
