8th January 2015 - Ings for Garburn

3 made it out for the first official ride of the new year, Jamie B, Jamie M and CT. It was a tad cold but not wet :) It was the usual warm up heading up Dubbs lane and onto Garburn, first time for Jamie M, so a bit of a baptism being a cold winters night, at least in winter you can't see what's coming. Nice steady climb up, layers off as you warm up and layer back on at the top! then steady downhill, the rocks and loose sections seem to have moved, so worth taking it easy, no real dramas and no punctures. Down to Kentmere and back up and over one river, 2 extra rivers may have been too much and it had started to drizzle, back to the cars, a drink was a possibility, but the farmers were in the pub and took all space, so get home to warm up and we'll do the pub another time. Next ride from Troutbeck, park at the bottom lay-by. Updated to Ings
