Good work Andy!  We did Whinlater when it first opened.  Really good trail. 10 times better than the North Face is.  Next time you're up there, have a go at the Borrowdale Bash.  Starts and finishes in Keswick, pretty much circling Derwent Water.

I'll give you a shout when autumn/winter draws in and the roadie get swopped for a new mtb.

excellent Andy, we saw a lone deer up at Whinlatter on Sunday in the mid afternoon, it's things like that which make it even more worthwhile, good to see you getting out too  :headbang:

Nice one Chaos aye let me know and maybe we could meet upfor a ride sometime pal, i love those trails up there and hope to get back next week. The north red trail is hard work and really technical with the south red a bit easier but both are superb and even the blue is really enjoyable too  :headbang:
