We met at the lay-by by the river and Church Bridge, 9 riders in all turned up for a rocky "Hardtail Heaven" ride. Firstly we set off south down the road to take the lane heading to Ings called Moorhouse Road and then left onto the Dubbs Road bridleway. Once past the reservoir head up to meet the junction with Garburn road track and take the left turn to enjoy the rocky downhill all the way to the road, then go left along the A592 for about 500m to find a bridleway on the right hand side, cross the Trout Beck and up to the lane. Take the route right to the village post office and left up Robin Lane, at this point John left us to head home early as a wheel rim had decided to split!
Continue up Robin lane to the seat and take the left route down to the lane, then right for 100m on the road before heading left down Wain Lane, for rocks and a water crossing before 150m of the main road then right up Mirk Lane and test those legs up the hill!!! At the top head along the lane back into Troutbeck and take the second bridleway after the post office down to the church and back to the cars....where Joel was waiting, this time deciding not to meet us half way round! but just to come to the pub.
Next week it's Winster, meet near the church 6.15pm.
