Just fantastic. Well done everyone who rode and a big thanks to Rich for organising it.

I'm only slightly annoyed work stopped me getting even as support.

Amazing!

Saw the pics on FB looked amazing, great effort to everyone involved. And to PostieRich, no mean feat to organise all that & sort the weather too

Cheers for the route Rich, certainly packed a lot in. Not sure you could have improved on the weather and the Lakes put on a great show with all the bluebells and wild garlic. Some tender bits this morning (but in a satisfyingly nice way) 😆

Had an absolutely brilliant time Rich. Thank you so much for organising. Can't think of a better way to raise a bit of money for some excellent causes.

Lovely to meet up with a lot of old friends, and make new ones. A good reminder of what mountain biking is all about.

That looks great, fingers crossed we're blessed with similar for the Sam Houghton! 😉 Hoping to hook up with Si (newish Lakes resident) and ride on Sunday if you fancy it Rich (we spoke about this on the Dyfi).

Awesome weekend, thanks again Rich and double thanks for sorting such beautiful weather 🙂

Nice one Rich, loved it.
Cheers for getting it all squared away.

Did this go through Rydal Hall grounds? I was staggering around after the Fairfield Horseshoe race and was quite envious of all the bikes!

Did this go through Rydal Hall grounds

Yes, yes it did..

Congrats to all

jealous - looks like a great spot for a mass bivi

It was. I think there were about a dozen of us scattered around by the various tarns. Not sure if anyone who bivvied out used any point further than this.

Good times. Good ride. Good people.

Thanks Rich 🙂

What a cracker that was! Thanks for a superb route, great weather, good beer. We had a few moments but everyone had a fantastic ride.
For a very deserving cause.

Cheers 😀

Got so many photos!! one of those rides when the camera was out around every corner 🙂

Same time next year guys and I will sort out some proper lakes weather 🙂

Heres a few pics from the ride

Last orders at the Cuckoo Brow, the barman filled my camel back and gave me free bars chocolate!

Yeah cracking weekend, thanks again Rich for sorting.

Amazing event, huge thanks to Rich and his family for all the effort that went into setting up the first JennRide. Even though the whole weekend had a relaxed "mates just going for a ride" feel to it, there will certainly have been a lot of organisation going on behind the scenes.. the route planning, the parking, signing out, signing people back in, checking we all got back ok, etc etc, so cheers! . I didn't know anyone before starting the ride but I had some great laughs with loads of different groups along the way, now know that black sambucca is my hip-flask drink of preference (cheers Steve!), that sandpaper can fix valve issues, and that my bike will survive 100 miles in the Lakes if I promise it a shiny new headset in return.
Hope Cameron got back to Edinburgh ok, cheers for opening all those gates!

Once again thanks for sharing, looks wonderful

@whitestone - FYI you need to edit out the s from https

@jambalayah Hmm, just tried that on a machine that I hadn't ever logged in to vimeo from and it put the 's' back 🙄

Good work Greg enjoy the Great Divide !

Looks awesome Rich! 😀

The beer at the finish went down a treat. Lots of great people... Big thanks to John Climber, Tony (Lawnmanmx) for the offer to join them on the ride. Big thanks to Rich too...probably the only person with a bike as heavier than mine.

Will definitely do it all over again

The heavier the bike the faster it gets going downhill 🙂

Great pictures guys- gutted not to have made it, as I had been looking forward to it for weeks. Unfortunately van chose a bad time to develop a slipping clutch 🙁

Do it again soon please!

Was a wonderful, memorable weekend in every way. Huge thanks to Richard (and your helpers) for organising!

The morning light on Sunday, departing Little Langdale, was the icing on the cake 🙂
