11th October 2012 - Troutbeck - Jenkins - Loughrigg
It was a tad damp, but still 3 folk turned out, Jamie, George and CT, we started off by climbing up the road and headed up Robin Lane and continued onto Jenkins Crag, the rocks were damp but we were soon in Ambleside and as it was still early we headed off for a lap of Loughrigg, at least we were warmed up for that climb. Descent was fine, round tarn, down the Terrace note that at the S bends the surface has been flattened and there are no burms to rail, so watch your speed, (route here http://m.gpsies.com/mapOnly.do?fileId=vksqbnbmxahpczud with assistance from Bike-Treks) rest of route is back along coffin route into Ambleside (avoiding main road as much as possible) but them we had to resort to going along main road, until we headded left to go up Wain Lane and roll back to cars. PS Jamie had some GREAT flapjack stuff...next ride from Hawkshead park at school.
