Malcolm - some thirty years ago, or so there was a commercial gliding club known as "the Carlisle GC" I think. Site location I don't remember. They claimed a 50Km ridge run, which is probably the ridge you are referring to.
Another activity in the NW is the September camp in the Eden Valley with a winch in a farmers field, but that's further south.
