The North Pennines maybe England’s last true wilderness but it has one of the best and most helpful bikes shops I have ever come across.
On tour last week(May21) my friends sealed bottom bracket needed replacing. Staying in Alston we thought we would have to go miles to find a shop but just a few miles east at Nenthead our prayers were answered. Dave fitted a new bb whilst we waited and also adjusted the front mech.
That same day we meet some off road riders who had cracked the replaceable rear drop out coming over some hard terrain near Cross Fell. Dave sourced one and had it Couriered up so they could carry on toCape Wrath.
