The four day mountain bike trail in the Lake District is behind us now. Of the four days, three were sunny with clear blue skies, and we had one overcast day with a couple of hours of rain. Overall much better than we had bargained for, considering this is the north of England. We cycled an aggregate 220 kilometers, but am unsure of the cumulative climb. Frans brought his brand new Suunto GPS along, but left the manual at home. One thing´s for sure, we climbed a helluvalot!



As you can see from these two little youtube clips the scenery in The Lake District is amazing. The weather made a difference I am sure, but we did pass through some fantastic bits of England. I guess one of the nice things of mountain biking is that you pass through some countryside that you would normally never get to .



So now all we need is the footage of he helmet cam, which I will put on here (if it´s any good..,-)

hasta la próxima
