Rideout to Hartside via Kirkstone
I led a rideout today up to Hartside Cafe via Kirkstone Pass, taking the following route: Bowness, Kirkstone Pass, Hartside Pass, Alston, Middleton-in-Teesdale, Buttertubs Pass, Hawes, Settle, Sawley, Clitheroe.
We did 253 miles in total, I set out at 8:30am and got back at about 4:30pm. The roads were mostly dry and we had nice weather all day. On tree lined parts we had standing water and leaves and we also went through a couple of flooded roads, but the bike never so much as twitched.
Had a really good blast and managed to keep up a decent progressive pace all day. No incidents to report although I did lose the back on some leaves setting off from a T junction, but it wasn't a major issue, although Helen said it didn't look good.
Helen intended to come out with us all day as I planned the ride for her to get her used to heights for the Pyrenees next year. But she suffered with a sore stomach all night and only managed to meet us at Hawes for the last part of the ride.

I wish you guys all the best but riding out involves lots of hazardous like Head injury, feet injury, hand injuries and gripping issue and eye issue which required protective equipment from these hazardous.
So for foot protection, you should have perfect fitted and branded safety shoes (like mentioned in this link https://www.indusuno.com/safety/safety-equipments/safety-shoes.html), branded and perfect Safety Helmets for heat protection (available here https://www.indusuno.com/safety/safety-equipments/safety-helmet.html) and branded and top class hand gloves from top brands (available here - https://www.indusuno.com/safety/safety-equipments/hand-gloves.html)
