Follow the leader

These cyclislts were doing the Fred Whitton Challenge this morning.

About 1200 riders started the 112 mile ride around the Lake District going over all the high passes, starting and finishing in Coniston.

This was taken by Ullswater, after they had climbed and descended the first of the passes - Kirkstone.

I did intend taking shots from up Kirkstone, but the deluge and wind made me reconsider...
