I'd be up for a run out one Sunday maybe? If you aren't living life on the edge, you're taking up too much space!!

I might have to nip to the shops.............the long way round  , there is a little gentle roman road along the moors a few miles from my house.
I can feel a new down load looming for the tablet pc/ satnav. perhaps knock the mud and dust off it too  great bit of kit used it on loads of challenges.

I could be tempted
A West to East green lane route sounds interesting. The St Bees Head to Robin Hoods Bay route is popular with walkers and cyclists, no reason why it could not be done via as many green lanes as possible.

Full map coverage plus some friends doing a route at the end of April (may join them for part of it) all Def'ners but one D3. So checking suitablity, some of the lanes in the lakes can be a tad narrow, then there are the gates  as my wheel arches and front bumper can testify too! 
Been working on the route for a few days now just need to recce campsites with B&B's nearby for those that "don't do camping" So any suggestions welcome.

Search my posts for one about Kankku. Went with them the other year and posted route info. Was a bit extreame though. Will be going up in May with SWMBO and was thinking of giving the Old Coach Road a try. Has anyone had any experience of this.
Cheers
