Anyone interested in a return trip to Middleton-in-Teesdale? Either later this year or next Easter? Or both? There is a big gap of BM events between Wales (10th June) and Barmouth (end of August), so we could do something July or early August.
absolutely steve count me in , strom hopefully your ankle is getting better mate , Lindsay , the teesdale hotel was decent as well incase yous fancied that as an option also , will be happy to stay there again x
You are quite correct Lindsay however there was talk whilst in Middleton-in-Teesdale at Easter of a trip further north to facilitate exploring the East Coast and Holy Island etc as it was a long ride from Middleton👍
There was, and possibly still is, but I ain't done anything yet about a Northumberland camps. A day trip to Lindisfarne isn't a problem for half a dozen bikes - you just need to be prepared to thrash a bit 😀, but I just wasn't prepared to chance it with 25 bikes on a bank holiday, I would have lost people for sure.
Soooo...... From here Lindisfarne is about 2 hours brain out riding, about 3 sensible progress and about 8 hours 'live to ride, ride to live' cruiser territory 🙂 How about the weekend 8 - 10 July? Lindisfarne safe tide crossing on the 9th is 13:35 to 22:00. Booking B&Bs might be a bit more of a faff cos it's holiday season, but it's July so it should be campable.
