22nd March 2018 - Pelter Bridge - Elterwater

Charlie, Jamie and CT met up in a deserted car park (free after 6pm;) Charlie was coming out for some practice and brought cake, let's hope that is a lesson for everyone...here's hoping;) So up the hill, what up to start for the warm up! yes we've done it before and it's OK, so up to the caves, steady away, possibility of rain later but OK now and mild enough, ease up to the caves and onwards up Loughrigg terrace, past Deerbolts and past the YHA into Elterwater, along the road through Chapel Stile and up the road until the bridleway on the LHS then along the woods and north above the quarry. Stop for cake, ok so now some drizzle, no need for Goretex just yet, head down the lane and back to Elterwater, up past the YHA (where we saw frogs, it's that time of year again watch out) and down past Rydal water and back before 9pm, nice and easy.
No photos from the ride but some a few days later, Spring :)
Next ride Whitbarrow

They're back and in the garden pond!
