hammer5 Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 I've amended the route to add my home start location and end and it turned it into 235m 7hr route.http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Kirkby+Lonsdale&daddr=Shap,+Penrith+to:Penrith+to:ca93bw+to:Middleton-in-Teesdale,+Barnard+Castle+to:dl11+6ed+to:hawes+to:Kirkby+Lonsdale,+Carnforth&geocode=FQ8TOwMdPlzY_ylLkwJYFYZ8SDHyEZJ3dbrLLA%3BFXYSQAMdNSXX_ymrPuJFKPF8SDGFXoPAEnDFcA%3BFdMlQgMdVvbV_ylJOAtnkFV8SDFO-2tKJsrbRQ%3BFbjlQwMdMg3a_yk7PFPjX6t9SDGJf6eQcUmpTQ%3BFU57QQMdj0vg_ykzzwaf6jZ8SDHA32ztnvkMBQ%3BFRTtPgMdJgnf_ylp78P4XkB8SDEcmuv2vQ9rfw%3B%3B&hl=en&mra=ls&dirflg=h&sll=54.505137,-2.3703&sspn=0.66819,1.755066&ie=UTF8&ll=54.479613,-2.3703&spn=0.668607,1.755066&z=9Not sure if my butt can take that, if others from my area are going then it would be lazy and rude not too!!BB Quote
hammer5 Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 I've asked a couple of mates and they are interested, what time would you be looking at meeting at point A?BB Quote
Guest Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 from my start point in Barrow its 226 miles, Techno starts from Leeds (260miles).. so similar, we've done most of it before, (just not with Tan Hill)would be looking at 10.00 at Devils Bridge, you could always meet us en-route, or leave on the return leg, Techno departs from Ribblesdale Viaduct/Hawes, as its nearer home..

hammer5 Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 It would make sense to meet you at Devil's bridge 10am point A, then leave on the route back splitting up and heading South when we meet up with the A65 on the last leg.Pitching it to my mates, as it looks a really really good ride BB Quote
Guest Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 Pitching it to my mates, as it looks a really really good ride BBBB, Check out the others i have led...
