Event Report
Well it could not have been a bigger contrast to last weekend in Yorkshire. Cumbria did us proud and provided two days of hot dry weather for the Setmurthy and Grizedale events.
Setmurthy could have been very different if the weather had been bad. I think it was as rideable as I have ever seen it. A few weeks earlier it was still one big bog and I thought that it might have to be postponed. However it does create a mappers nightmare trying to determine rideability.
Having planned twice before on Grizedale I wanted something a little different. Some think it is a boring area with just forest roads but there are some more challenging bits if you look for them. Setting free order I hope gave you more route choice compared to Setmurthy which was more about navigation.
Hopefully the two events complemented each other.
Congratulations to all the winners and I hope that you all enjoyed the weekend.
Look out for the next league events on 11th June around the York area courtesy of Andy Windrum and Steve Willis.
