12th September 2013 - Troutbeck

We re-located to Troubeck to avoid the country show at Crooklands and rain welcomed us, Joel, George, Jamie and CT met up and did the usual up Limefitt, down Garburn, up Troutbeck, and up onto Robin lane via the short-cut which was testing (keep an eye out for the stream to one side, it could easily swallow you up); then down Wain up Mirk or was it the other way around, we waved at Charlie's office on the way past, said hello to a badger, George says he was kissed by a passing bat (too many black and white films George), but they were flying low! and on the tarmac lanes which were running with water there were loads of emerging frogs, both young and old, it was like a slalom trying to avoid them all! Warm but wet evening with good testing climbs ;).
Next ride is Barbon
