6 met up at the layby near Troutbeck Church Bridge, we set off towards Ings to get to Longmire road track, then down the bridleway to Limefitt Park and down the hill, where Jamie on his new 29er had a puncture, maybe because he was riding his 700c road wheels (with disc mounts!) and narrow cycle cross tyres. We had time to admire the moon lit view of troutbeck over limefitt park, it seemed almost like a spanish village in the moonlight, maybe my imagination was working overtime!
We dropped down to the road and took the bridleway past the church and up the track to the Troutbeck road, it's a bit of a climb! Then we took Robin lane and stopped at the seat for the moon lit view of Windermere, then its down the rocky route to Holbeck lane and a right and left turn to take Wain Lane, now this is a rocky route, watch out for the stream and the muddy puddles. At the main road turn right and then take the track up Mirk lane, this invloves the uphill challengue, well done to Chris for making it past the first corner! We continued up and regrouped at the road, then we went back to Troutbeck, down the track back to the church and back to the cars. It was a good moon lit night.
Next week it's Barbon.
