29th June 2006 - Grizedale bridleways

9 riders started from a lay-by 300m south of Satterthwaite at the bottom of Moor Lane bridleway, which would be the last route back. We set off throught Satterthwaite village and onto the steep testing track up Breasty Haw, on through the forrest to enjoy a great technical downhill to come out at the lane. We then went approx 300m up the road to take the bridleway on the left up into the forrest, more testing track, then a right hand turn onto a fire road, some single track, a broken chain (Jamie on a hard tail 'cause the susser had broken, what next!) then a right heading for the 'Fox' then right and onto Moor Top car park, where we were going to head down the North face route to the visitor centre. At this point there were mutterings about midges and have we got time for chips, so we headed down the trails by Hall Wood to meet up with Moor Lane and a final descent to the cars.
Next week meet at Sedburgh centre car park, for possibly a Dent ride out.
