I'm off to the north lakes for the next couple of days and was just wondering of places to ride while I'm there.

Bearing in mind I'll be on a DH bike, but can/am willing to ride/push up hills etc.

Can anyone suggest some good places to ride?

cheers

Setmurthy woods outside Cockermouth used to have some decent downhill trails in it, all built by locals. Not been out that way for a while though, so no idea what's still there.

If that's where you're planning on going, ask in 4play Cycles in the Market Place, Cockermouth.
