MINNIE Mouse has been rescued from a Lake District fell after breaking
her leg while crashing her mountain bike.

Langdale and Ambleside Mountain Rescue team had to rescue a woman
mountain biker dressed as popular Disney cartoon character Minnie
Mouse on Sunday afternoon.

The woman, an experienced rider in her 30s, was on a festive ‘fancy
dress ride’ with Lancaster based mountain bike club The Bogtrotters.

The group - which included riders dressed as Dennis the Menace, Shrek,
a sugar plum fairy, a pre-op transsexual and a sexy Santa - were
riding along Elterwater Common, near Great Langdale, when she crashed
her bike, breaking her left ankle.

Nick Owen, spokesman for Langdale and Ambleside Mountain Rescue, said:
“She just fell off her bike and badly broke her ankle.

“She was on a fancy dress ride, there was a bloke there with
suspenders and stockings on. They were all in good spirits.”

The woman was taken by ambulance to Lancaster Royal Infirmary.

Why was Mike absent? Was he in prison? Time out?
Maybe he had his bell bottom pants caught in the
chain and had to push his bike home.
