Thank you Dave, 🙏 another excellent route to try out later in the year on a mini escape 🤞

Excellent video thanks for sharing

As you said, so peaceful up there. I loved the sound of silence.

Is that an e gravel bike?

My local loop

Cracking video dave thankyou spent many a mtb year up in Grizedale even raced there in the early 20's awsome forest loving the New Advertising at the beginning

My wife got me one for xmas not used it yet because i had to get a clip for my saddle bag and a phone mount but will be trying it tmrw.Got to admit im still a bit meh about it cos i try to avoid road riding where possible and im a serial shoulder checker😂but everyone seems to rave about them so ill be open minded about tmrw's first attempt.

any idea how to make the tires smaller? i have had the bike for 6 months now and are quite tired of how big the tires are any ideas anyone? i love the bike just too big tires.

Excellent, well done. I guess , seeing it in your hand, all the selfie drone shots were done using the DJI Neo? Can't understand criticism from viewers, you did not say This Is The Best trail...you said Is this the best trail in the UK?

Is it good for delivery drivers?

Great video shots….

The red kite trail consett is nice ride with some ok views i like to kinda just explore places rather than go the known routes which get to busy and although im a dog lover some trails are dog poop flick and spray which i hate least kick it to side dont bag it and throw on poop xmas trees you see 😂

The lakes and northumberland and wonderful places to hike or cycle so much to see

Nice one, thank you. Did a similar trail run in May of 24, from Keswick along the old line to Threlkeld,the up to Burnt Horse, south to Lonsdale Fell, Latrigg and finally back to Friar’s Crag Derwent Water.

Hi. Im looking to buy this drone for an upcomung bike ride in Italy in March. Could i ask you which settings in follow mode were used here? There will be 5 of us and it would be good if the drone could be back far enough and high enough to get us all in shot.

E-bikes are awesome. I only use my ebike for zone 2, and it is such a comfortable ride. No back pain, no butt pain. Let the haters hate.

Horrible bike position to do long zone 2 training. You should had bought an endurance e-bike.

Can it be mounted on a Vario radar mount? Did you experience any false alerts that a car was behind when there was none? Is the battery life as advertised?

The working of motor is controlled by pedal assist only

I have the Varia, had it a few years, but I agree, the Cycplus does look a lot neater and not a bad price, too.

Cheers dave

As a fan of the lake district, I enjoyed this post. But may I suggest that you put a map page up during ur post, just to show the start and finish points, to enable ur viewers to locate the trail accurately, and perhaps integrate it into a ride of their own. Good job!👍

I love cycling through old railway tunnels, the Collinton near Edinburgh has some amazing artwork in it, depicting scene's from the Robert Louis Stephenson poem From a Railway Carriage.

Fantastic content m8 keep it coming did buy one of those cycling tops went for the largest couldn't get it on gave to one of my friends I'm a 50 inch chest quality gear but to small for me 😀

Been on this Trail, Great to see it again, Enjoyed the Video 👍👍👍

Write a book: "Britain's Best Cycle Routes And Loops"? List distances covered. oldmrmegadrive2. blogspot. com

is this the 250w EU E26 or the 1000w US E26?

Now you just need to ride a carbon fibre electric road bike. Especially as some are only around 11.8kg now (new Ribble Allroad SLRe).

I'm a cyclist and rambler, and you just said that a part of the route you are cycling is a footpath! Did you dismount while on the footpath? If not, aren't you breakjng the countryside code of conduct? One small thing leads to another.

Hi Dave. I'm all set on zwift now. Sent you a sub on zwift. I'm still on the mend, as soon as the arm is good and I have some fitness, I'll catch you on a zwift cycle. At the moment I'm clueless, learning zwift is like learning a new language.

Well done mate , awesome place the lakes stunning place

I got my L7 yesterday and I can't speak of its radar performance yet because I haven't got the chance to ride outside - it's just above freezing here in Seattle. But in terms of its use with a Garmin Edge bike computer (I have tried it with Edge 530 and 840), the L7 does not integrate well with the light network. The L7 can be added to the Garmin as both radar and light but I wouldn't add the latter, as confirmed by my correspondence with Steven at Cycplus. If the L7 is the sole device in the light network, that is if you do not have another ANT+ device like a head light in the light network, the light network is stable. If you have another device in the light network, the light network will be unstable, with the head unit having problem communicating with all the devices in the light network. I asked Steven why the L7 does not behave like the Varia radar/taillight in the light network and he told me each radars use their own proprietary protocols (I thought the ANT+ light network was standard?). But that does not really explain why the L7 does not get along with another device in the light network when that is not an issue for the Garmin Varia. The Garmin head unit offers four lighting modes: auto, high visibility, trail, and individual. Choosing any one of these four modes makes no difference with the L7, unlike the Varia taillight. If your Garmin head unit has an ambient light sensor like the Edge 530/840, and the display is set to auto brightness, the L7 only has two lighting modes: low intensity (high ambient light) and mid intensity (low ambient light). If the auto brightness is disabled on the Garmin head unit, the L7 has only one lighting mode. When the L7 is paired to the Garmin head unit as a light, you cannot manually change the lighting mode by pressing the power button on the L7, as the Garmin head unit has full control over it. The L7 does not have a standby mode like the Garmin Varia. When its taillight is off and the device has not moved for 10 minutes, the LED indicator at the bottom of the device goes off and it goes to sleep. In this state, the L7 is not discoverable by both the Cycplus app and the Garmin head unit. The L7 is discoverable if you wake it up by moving it. In comparison, when the Garmin Varia is in standby mode, it remains discoverable by the Garmin head unit so as soon as you power on the Garmin head unit, it finds the radar without waking it up.

If you fancy a trip down south I can recommend The South Downs Way, it is a two day ride for me anyway and bring plenty of water bottles it can be in short supply up on the downs.

That does look good. Two of the multi-day routes I've most enjoyed are Portpatrick to Dumfries, brilliant variety of scenery, and Hadrian's Cycleway. Keeping it to shorter trips, and basically off-road, Ballachulish to Loch Creran (NCN 78) has wonderful views, and is mostly an old railway line; the Deeside way (Aberdeen to Ballater or sections of it); or take the train to Rannoch Station and do a circuit on quiet roads of Loch Rannoch.

Looks an awesome route would deffo not get fed up of that scenery.. would love to have a pedal up there in the summer

Ulverston pepperpot?

Hi. How much psi do you put in those beautiful tubeless wheels?

Vielen Dank 😊👍🏿

Well id definitely recommend the Scar House Reservoir route near me in Nidderdale. The views are simply breathtaking. Its boderline MTB but you can do a lovely smooth rd climb which takes you 2 same point. About 17 miles. Tough but not as tough as Borrowdale Bash

Cheers for that dave great gear

Some stunning views. If it isn’t the best trail in Britain, then it can’t be far off judging by some of those views. Hopefully I can get over to the Lakes this year for a bit of cycling 👍

Hi mate yes some of the best rides in the lakes may be the best ? , like the camera work 😊

Great video! Your camera work is amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, I agree that is an amazing trail, it was fantastic when I did the C2C last year, we have nothing to compare, where I live, just flat soulless Fenland

Assuming you haven't got the boost one then

Round the back of Thirlmere?

Great intro, really good 'modeling' :-) Ahahaha i though DW was 'Dave Wear'
