So I'm off to Borrowdale on Friday - I have gone up market and booked into the YHA on Friday and Saturday nights hoping to get a good night's (dry) sleep. Weather forecast is not too good, but hey its only WATER!!

So me and Louis did the Old Counties Tops in May - 37 miles, 10,000' of ascent and finished it in a respectable position. We actually enjoyed it. Great day out.
I also did the Patterdale Boundary Race in July - 30 miles, 10,000' of ascent and was first home.
I have an entry for Borrowdale on 1st August - 17 miles, 6,5000' of ascent.
So hopefully all this will pay off and we can get round next year.
