I took part in a bit of a challenge a couple of weeks ago, a mountain bike ride around the Lake District called the Jenn Ride - a fund raiser for St. Gemma's Hospice. 104 miles, 14,000 ft of climbing and very tough. This chap, Barry Godin, makes great videos of his challenges, and the scenery and views in his vid of the Jenn Ride really shows off the Lake District to its best, and you get just an idea of how tough the challenge was. Worth watching on a big screen if you can. Happy Birthday to me.

And well done!
I was thinking about doing the coast to coast ride but that looks like more fun, even though I'd have to do a bucket load more training to stand any chance of completing it.
BTW Happy Candles!

Tends to be short, steepish climbs and long, gentle descents. It's a nice route, would recommend!
