@@davidpottage6402 not tried to share a gpx file before, I’ll take a look or make the Strava route public 👍

www.strava.com/activities/12414365766 Not sure if you will see as I keep my account private

@@oc1rob yep, hence not on the video as I walked it.

I’ve never cleaned that bit either.

Thanks Scott

Thanks Scott - Pleased you enjoyed 🙂

Yeah it’s a great run. There’s another route that starts almost from the top and goes off to the left. I’ve got another video of it. The top is a bit of double track but there’s a great single track section and then super fast double track with some nice boulder sections back to the church.

The actual bike park run is a bit naff if you ask me. Was ok as a warm up but once was enough

Ok, thank you!

First one was ok as the heather did soften the impact. Second one did hurt and smacked my head I’ve got the emergency contact set up in the garmin so would call wifey to let her j is I may have crashed. Worked for both crashes and had to cancel the call.

Hi Mick, yea top of signal and the headed up towards du holy and around. You can pick up a trail map in the tourist centre

There’s another run that starts from the signal and you come out and head down towards the notre dame de la gorge. Not as good as this run but has a great bit of single track and a fast double track doesn’t to the chapel.

@@speedymadr6 Cheers, I know it well, been going there since 1989 but haven't seen that single track before, so you head toward Col du Joly and you pick it up somewhere off that track which is the green run in Winter?

I’m sorry for the late reply but I did not see your reply. Loved this music and love your comment, thank you

Yep it's a good un. If you're staying North Lakes there's lots of good natural stuff as well. Borrow Dale Bash, Skiddaw (descending down ullock) to name just 2. Have fun

@@speedymadr6 I'm not a very experienced mtb rider but I'm up for some fun and it doesn't look too difficult from the video. Ilk just going to explore see what's there...

Thomas's skid at 1:35 still makes chuckle every time and I must have watched it 20 times by now!

Dave Allan cheers mate

I heard about it a few years ago but only found the access to it recently on strava looking for segments. I have uploaded the video so a few friends can view but it will be taken it down. there is a sign on the entrance asking for people not to promote it on social media. I will respect the trail builders. But yes sketchy in places, especially given the conditions!

Cheers Ash

Or take the chair lift 👍

Dave Allan where’s the fun in that? 😜😂

Was awesome Matt, few places were pretty tricky but as you can see a lot was just bi e and flowing.

Cheers Buddy :-)

Thank you and sorry for the 2 year delay in replying!

TheGib74 much appreciated, was running super fast!

TheGib74 much appreciated, was running super fast!

mack8040 depends where you staying. I've always liked the borrowdale bash, all rideable and a good day out. Some road sections but worth it. Skiddaw and come down ullock pike is a gem. About two hour climb to the top with a mix of push and cycle but one of the best descents in the lakes.

mack8040 I went up Rossett Gill to esk hause then down to Styhead tarn. Up honnistet and then follow the return route of borrow dale bash. I've look at black sail pass, not sure how much would be rideable

Matt Cross cheers buddy!

YAll good thanks TheGib74, just a mild concussion thankfully. The bike was fine except for a small bit out of the pedal and some scratches on the fork lower legs. Could have been a lot worse for bike and me!

Dave Allan Yeh

TheGib74 cheers

Cwmcarn is a step up from the Reds at BPW but it is all rideable (with options to ride around the two drops on the lower section). it is definitely more DH orientated, fast with more rocks and drops vs BPW. I would say if you confident on the Reds such as insufficient funds then you will be fine. What is great is that as there are only a few options you get to know the track really well by the end of the day. Start slow and build your speed up :-)

Absolutely, for my skill level they just don't work, I haven't got the speed to get up and over them. Kind of puts a damper on the feel of the trail. I love it all the way up to the tables then its just a bit bleurgh. Preferred it when they were smaller.

Those tables work just need to hit the trail flat out with no brakes and clear the jumps before it.

Those jumps are some of the best in the park! I used to think like you before i actually tried clearing the tripple. Once you huck the tripple before you have more than enough speed

LeNS Productions Cheers dude, just checked out your channel and subscribed, some great edits!

Dave Allan thanks :)

Cheers LeNS
