Admittedly, this video isnt the best I've put out... After the weather I was convinced all the footage was going to be scrapped, so I was made up most of it was semi usable, apologies if the quality isn't up to parr. I was very nearly going to delete everything so anything is a bonus I guess. Let me know your thoughts 🤔 PS, sorry for the premier, I hadn't realised I'd clicked the tab thingy.. 😂 Thanks all.

@lewsdirtbikedays9 ай бұрын
@@Semihardendurothat's awesome! Glad you had an amazing day. It's a special place is the lake district. That last lane is called gatescarth pass, the whole trail is only open once a month to motorbikes and you need to apply for a permit to cross, there's no more available now for this year sadly so without the permit that's as far as you can go. At the top of the hill is a padlocked gate, and the permit gives you a code for the lock, so without the permit you cant continue.
