SimonF Mar 2021 10:26am, 18 Mar 2021 204 posts	0 SimonF Disappointed to see that the earlier Keswick AC races like Lords Seat and the Grisedale Grind have been cancelled as I had hoped there may be some smaller races in April. Their first is now due to be Helvellyn and the Dodds on May 30th. FF - will you be doing it again this year? Bring a crash helmet if so :-D.
