8th January 2009 - Ings

7 riders started the new year with a ride out of Ings, but where would it go...? so we headed up the lane heading south west, look out for the bridleway on the RHS, head along the track to the trees and enjoy the testing route, especially if you are JB and forgot his HID (we thought it may slow him down, but no..it did not!) you come out to a lane and head past Black Moss coming out onto the A591, cross over the road and up the lane. Come out at Mislet Brow, turn left and go uphill, then take the RH Borrans lane to come into the Kentmere route. Head the normal route, watch out for ice covered puddles, too many mince pies and you'll break through! Now just head to Three rivers and turn right and see how much ice is around. Head back via Brow foot, up the tarmac lane, left down past the farm and onto the narrow testing alley, what fun, especially if you have no lights..! All back down, no pub option this week. Next ride is 15th January at Hawkshead car park.
