TWA Recce - Monday 16th April 2018

Head out after work with Craig, he is keen to recce the Teenager With Altitude race (just the AW for me). We park at Stoneycroft, decide the miss out Causey Pike, and head up Stoneycroft Gill to Outerside, and a look back to the descent line from Causey. 

Then to Coledale Hause and the long climb to Grasmoor, a big hill with a very flat summit plateau. We get good lines and head out to Whiteless Pike before a brutal descent to Mill Beck and a steady pull up to Newlands Hause. Had hoped to hitch a lift back, but there are no cars so we run the 4.5 miles back to the car. 

And then into the Royal Oak in Braithwaite for much needed food and beer. A good evening out.
