Hi, im doing this for first time. Whats the water situation like, any where to get it from on way round or is it carry as much as poss??

There's a spring heading up towards Scafell Pike from Esk Hause, then you've got a beck or two on the Corridor route, there's often a crowd at Styhead handing out water and there's drinks available at Honister.

If it's wet then there's water everywhere!

...and they usually have some water at the Honister checkpoint.

Thanks!

[In it for the long run]

Anymore entry substitutions going? I really fancy a long plod this weekend!

I know there's been one in previous years (not been on it, just heard about it) - Rosthwaite - Whinlatter - Honister - Newlands - Honister - Rosthwaite or something like that. Haven't been able to find anything about one this year though. I'll hopefully be staying over in Keswick on Saturday night and be out on the bike on Sunday. If it turns out there isn't an organised ride, PM me if you fancy doing that route anyway (same goes for anyone else who fancies it).

I still have a spare place......

Is latrigg on the day after? Can't find it so guessing not :-(

[Also Ran]

Latrigg is run as a midweek race earlier in the year these days - May I think (without checking). Don't think my knees would stand up to it the day after Borrowdale these days, although I did used to enjoy it a few years ago as a hangover cure!
