I myself have been out of the saddle for a few years. I loved riding as a kid and then uni came and went and work came (unfortunately the went bit doesn't apply to work!) so riding time stopped! I got my bike together recently and a couple of workmates are mad keen now too so we decided to get up to the NorthFace. Despite a fixed 30 quid penalty for obscurring the registration plates with the bikes on the way up to the Lakes we all loved the day. There are some fantatsic single track routes that will test the best of riders and the board walk sections have been done really well with some of the sections tempting the more ambitous riders to have a go! It does get quite technical in places so watch your speed. I came off on a fast section of singletrack and it was a big fall but the adrenaline was pumping and we carried on. Still, a couple of days later I'm sore but can't wait to get up there again. It would be great to hear of any other places that people think are good and if I go anywhere else I'll post them on.
