6 days on/off road trail around the lake
District
One of the hardest thing to get right is to
arrange accommodations when you are planning
a major biking epic. We at Bicyclemania have
done the donkey work for you, so all you
have to do now, is see where the
Trailfinders stopped off for the night.
The Pit-Stops used on this trail are all
ideally distanced between our achievable
riding fitness. Please bear in mind they may
not suit some cyclists fitness levels. |
