Re: Anyone know any good rides in south lakes, Ambleside are
Been looking into this area myself lately, will be staying in Bowness for a week in May so intend to do the trail centres at Grizedale & Whinlatter and maybe do the RetroBIKE National Series MTB route if I can sort out my map reading skills by then
These also this route that I found during my internet trawling:

Years ago I was a member of a mountain bike club called bogtrotters I think they are based in lancaster now. Do a search for bogtrotters mountain bike club and on their home page click on the gallery then under the map about half way down click on list of routes in blue text then just choose a ride, theres maps directions elevation etc. You used to be able to click on the flags on the map and choose a ride and it was quite an interactive web site but I think they have now switched to facebook and I still refuse to join that so cant check them out. Worth a look by any of the lads who are thinking of riding up there was going to send Paul the link and I saw Pete was looking for places to ride up in the lakes, have a look round the site the pictures in the gallery are well worth a look and they used to write good rides reports which think are in green text at the top when you enter into one of the album's. Hope you find it useful
