4th June 2015 - Farleton

5 met up in Milnthorpe, Jamie M, Joel, Grant, Rory and CT and we rendezvous with George just off the canal east of Holme and head up past the farm for the first climb. It was a dry and warm evening but there were still puddles on the track near the gate, then through the gate and start the first climb challenge  to clean this section, not too bad but you do need to concentrate:) Now on the flat part next to the quarry edge, head along the bridleway through some gates, cross a field onto a quad track go left and work up onto the next track, enjoy any section of rocks. We were passed by one other bike by this stage and he had more squeaks than Georges' bike! We then met a couple of other riders near the top section and stopped for a wee chat, Grant even knew one chap, then we saw another 2 and later on there was a young couple but only one bike (he was apparently showing her how to ride section by section walking in between). We rolled down to the end enjoying the warmth back on the tarmac, George tee'd off at the canal and the rest rode into the sunset!  No curry or beer stop this time...next ride High Cross, Hawkshead Hill
