Garfield Aug 2020 9:47pm, 26 Aug 2020 13,818 posts	0 Garfield chuckles at NSC... Shame it's so far away from me. There are some flatter options I'd be interested in my neck of the woods that I'm toying with but not mentioning to hubby just yet.
Rosehip Aug 2020 9:48pm, 26 Aug 2020 17,572 posts	0 Rosehip and if you're going to scratch that itch, a lap around Windermere is as good a place as any! on the maybe/hopefully list

Velociraptor Aug 2020 10:05pm, 26 Aug 2020 48,165 posts	0 Velociraptor Don't listen to Gromit. Her steady pace nearly killed me.

Gooner Aug 2020 11:07pm, 26 Aug 2020 18,256 posts	0 Gooner Looks like another thing onto the bucket list. Will ve a few years before I'm in any state for that!
Gromit Aug 2020 7:18am, 27 Aug 2020 1,394 posts	0 Gromit Well hello Autumnleaves ;-)....... to all those that are tempted but think its a long way ...... it is but if you break it down you only need to be able to do 2 miles an hour , and dont listen to V'rap i'm mega slow and happy to get the Fetch bus around a scenic lap of Windermere in the Spring ......... come on gang
Velociraptor Aug 2020 8:18am, 27 Aug 2020 48,167 posts	0 Velociraptor If proper racing isn't happening by the spring I'd be tempted to train for something like that. Getting in the miles on off-road terrain is something I could do. I'd have to get quick enough to be finished before my bedtime, though. I'm too old for all-nighters.

Somewhere you can confidently ask "which is the best chip shop in Keswick?" and expect an intelligent reply.

Lots of experience and good advice available here, from which B & B or YHA to the best fell for Grandma to climb :-)
