The 36-mile route of the Rivers Ride follows the course of the rivers and many of the bridges that were either destroyed or badly damaged during the floods of 2009. Starting and finishing in Keswick, the route goes via Ouse Bridge to Cockermouth before looping back through Braithwaite and Grange. Not satisfied with a generally undulating trip, it includes one killer mile-long climb of more than 200m! More information can be found at http://www.cumbriafoundation.org/jennings-rivers-ride
