Back to Basics..



The first basecamp of the winter was yet aother classic, a great group of folk and yet another great weekend.. with snow! Saturday's bike ride South to Cartmel was a tough rolling course and i regretted riding fixed wheel.. especially when the king of the mountains competition started slipping away, even early attacks failed.. i was a marked man. The run on Sunday over Coniston was awesome despite the vicious winds which pinned us to the floor as we crossed Swirl How.. When Jess the Border Collie flew past with no 'paw to ground' contact, i started to think that things were getting a little spicey! Great to see everyone on the summit and everyone back in the cafe in one piece.. life doesn't get any getter, there's nowhere else i would have rather been!
