It has been a while since I last posted any mountain bike action on this blog, in fact it has been a while that we set out for some serious MTB action. We moved to the UK, so many of the new posts will be more UK centric, such as this one. Finally, next week we´ll be off to the Lake District to cycle a 4 day loop of some of England´s most beautiful terrain.
Our trail will start in Windermere, with a first leg to Pooley Bridge. From Pooley Bridge we will continue the next day on to Keswick. The third day will take us to Ravenglass, and on the fourth day we will cycle back to Windermere.
On our previous excursions we usually brought our luggage along with us, but this year we decided to include a sherpa service. In other words, our luggage will be delivered from B&B to B&B. As middle age is clearly creeping up on us, we opted for this little luxury. Besides, it will leave us to engage full heartedly in many of the spectacular downhills we will do. The tracks are supposed to be amazing. Expect some nice footage to be published here soon, as Frans will bring his helmet cam. There will be four of us next week, Frans, Jeroen, Marco and I.
More news from the trail next week.
Hasta la próxima
