A Ride to Skiddaw House Bunkhouse
07/11/2007 by Simeon Orme.
One of ideals for one of the South Lakes Group rides next year, is ride starting at Halton and cycling up to the Skiddaw House Bunkhouse staying the night and then cycling back to Halton. If you interest in taking part in the ride which will be in June please let me know in the next month, so that I can book the Bunkhouse.
