How cool to get an air show from a ferry! Amazing! Lake Windemere looks really nice. That's one low hill for the highest mountain in England! But still looks awesome! The Lake District looks absolutely amazing!

[@MotoBetty]

Really enjoyed this video as the Lake District is a really special place for me. I also have spent some time at Hawkshead as a kid too, on one of those outdoors holidays when you do white watee rafting and abseiling and stuff. It does rain a lot though! 😁

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes that’s area is just stunning 🤩 thank you so much for watching ❤️

[@kjheath1963]

Love all the history during the ride, thank you both for another great episode and good to see Lavi lead on some of the trails :)

[@LaviandOllie]

😊

[@KeithOReilly-o6e]

Stunning views, looks like an awesome trip, thanks for the history lesson and well done to Lavi for only falling off once, well done guy’s.

[@LaviandOllie]

😍🥳

[@FrancieRobin1]

Lake District. It's a GORGEOUS part of GB.

[@LaviandOllie]

Totally agree 😍

[@ronwhite8503]

For the two, non-consecutive, weeks a year it ain't raining.

[@georgeferguson9779]

Lavi did great! Also, I really liked the area y’all rode on just at the end. Great views of the stone fences, fields, and buildings.

[@LaviandOllie]

Glad you enjoyed it!❤️

[@suek.1507]

Hola L&O, What a beautiful National Park. It is stunning! Lavi, i applaud your bravery in tackling that rocky path. Some of those rocks were rather large. Ollie, thank you again for all the info about the Lake District. I enjoy hearing about these places that you ride. Safe and happy travels, see you in the next one. Happy and alive. Lots of love, Sue. ❤❤❤

[@LaviandOllie]

Thank you so much Sue ❤️❤️❤️

[@nomoreblahblah]

The Lake District looks like a great place to ride off-road. It's a little rocky, but the scenery is beautiful looking from our side of the internet. Well, once again you two are riding well, conquering obstacles that a few weeks ago might have seemed impossible. 👍Good video. Stay 💪~~~~~Excellent Cool 😎

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes that area is just stunning 🤩 very beautiful! Thank you so much for watching 😍

[@stephenrogers3562]

When doing trails it is a good idea to take a small folding saw with you. I have chopped up fairly large trees with one. Folds up and takes no space.

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes on the next trip 🥳

[@noelbowerman1562]

Lavi ,I'm seriously impressed ,how quickly your skills are improving, that and the fact ,you don't let anything beat you. Gorgeous episode ❤

[@LaviandOllie]

❤️

[@FrancieRobin1]

THIS IS SO COOL😎LAVI&OLLIE ARE SO COOL😎😎😎😎😎

[@LaviandOllie]

😎😍🥳

[@peakrider4886]

Awesome trails, Lavi you did brilliantly to manage all those rocky, water filled trails. You guys are just an amazing pair and an inspiration to get out and try some of the TET for myself.

[@LaviandOllie]

Yay 🎉🥳

[@swhuy]

This experience has taught Lavi what adventure touring is really about…..coffee shops 😂

[@LaviandOllie]

🤣🤣🤣

[@chriswharrier3571]

If the trail has been used by 4x4s, etc., it is probably better to follow where their wheel tracks, especially through deep puddles.

[@gillianflanders3389]

Hey Lavi - Just wanted to say you have truly inspired me and given me confidence. Whilst in the Picos in Spain a rogue SatNav direction took us off road and on an off road section for a couple of miles. A bit like the down hill rocky section you encountered on this episode 😱 Never done this before and on a sports tourer. But just kept thinking of your courage and thought I could do this - and I did! Exhilarating! But was so relieved when I got back on tarmac. Thank you and you have conquered this off road malarkey 🫡👍👍🏍️

[@LaviandOllie]

Thank you so much for your kind comment! It’s really awesome that you thought about me whilst tackling scary off road bits 😍 I feel with you and I’m super happy that you made it happy & alive ❤️❤️❤️

[@edwardmiller6353]

Great video and you are doing so well on those rough trails!! Thanks for the videos- we love to follow along on each adventure!!

[@LaviandOllie]

Thank you so much ❤️

[@alialshmmary7]

Amazing adventure❤❤

[@LaviandOllie]

❤️❤️❤️

[@petewarby7158]

Yet another exceptional video, thank you :)))

[@LaviandOllie]

😍

[@johnhumphries4632]

Beautiful , I love the mountains 👍 well done Lavi, your skill level amazes me 👍

[@LaviandOllie]

❤️

[@Kathyrsquared]

Lavi always thinks of healthy nutrition with all the berries she gathers around!😊

[@LaviandOllie]

Haha exactly 🤪

[@Bavenbushcraft]

Sooo looking forward to this part of your ride. I lived in the Lakes, just outside Keswick and love that area so much and know it so well! I used to do some teaching on bushcraft courses in the southern lakes and those jets used to get so annoying 😂 sometimes we'd be in the middle of a peaceful forest giving some quiet instructions and then the RAF would come in and we'd have to just stand there for a few minutes as they went around and around unable to hear each other talk 😂😂. Looking forward to the rest of this leg of the journey! Lavi, your off road confidence is growing sooo much along with your skills! Ollie... Love your fact dumps, had no idea that was the origin of the same Scafell. Dale

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes they make such a big noise, just wow! Thank you so much for watching Dale ❤️

[@CadillacJack]

A splendid episode, corr, some of those trails looked challenging, but they couldn't have been that difficult as Lavi hasn't said ' bloody hell ' for a while. Keep going.

[@LaviandOllie]

I said way worse things inside my head 🤣

[@bryandees8242]

I wonder what the landscape would have looked like before deforestation. Still ruggedly beautiful. Well done over the rocky terrain.

[@glynharper1066]

Its one of out favourite places to tour round, we were there in August in Kendal and Windamere so only just missed you.

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes we loved that place sooooo much 😍

[@michaelwebb47274]

YaY !!! HaPpY & aLiVe. Great video you two !!!

[@LaviandOllie]

Yay 🥳🎉

[@markchristianson8178]

Another great video you guys

[@LaviandOllie]

Thank you so much ☺️

[@erikbarkefors2441]

Some people do river crossings, you drive in the rivers... Impressive!

[@LaviandOllie]

🥳

[@chema1546]

Ok 👏🎉👍🌹

[@LaviandOllie]

🎉

[@NeverHighway-rx1ze]

Stunning place next year I will go to Scotland and I will do the same road you did 👍👍

[@LaviandOllie]

AWESOME 😊

[@andrelaureijssen9537]

What a beautiful environment and again beautifully captured by you. We would love to go on holiday there, unfortunately we see you in the rain too often 😉 The English ancestors were very busy building walls along roads and paths. I don't understand why there are still cobblestones on the paths 😳

[@LaviandOllie]

Indeed to much rain 😂

[@PhilipLanderloos]

Amazing drone shots once again, love them. 31 pounds for a camp place is really expensive. Probably a hotel would have been cheaper. Hope you had not too much rain the coming days.

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes unfortunately accommodation here in England is not cheap 😅 thank you so much for watching ❤️

[@ogasi1798]

good job both - cracking place to ride is the lakes, i told you you'd enjoy it 🙂

[@LaviandOllie]

We loved it 😍

[@andrewgilbert9553]

Another brilliant video guys “ super super lol “ But carefull with the drone as national parks sometimes arsy about flying also no fly zone because the airbase and the yank jets just proved it Keep up the fantastisch work guys ❤

[@LaviandOllie]

Thanks for the tip! ☺️

[@samhill3496]

Weather has set in and not good. Beautiful area. Lots of friends camp up there. Very scenic. 31 pounds, that's about what it is here. Crazy high. Better have hot water. Cool jets. Good ride but tough at times. All good from east Kentucky USA. Twist the grip.

[@LaviandOllie]

A 20min hot shower 🤪😂 thanks so much for watching ❤️

[@nigelcox7477]

Great riding, both of you! 👍😎❤️✅

[@LaviandOllie]

Thanks 👍

[@robertclifford1603]

I live in a house in East Midlands about 100 years old and every room had a fire. Till we modernised 👍👍

[@LaviandOllie]

Wow

[@yorkchris10]

We have a place in British Columbia, Canada called Windermere. Windermere Lake was once known as Lower Columbia Lake, and will be seen as such on older maps of the area.[2] It was given its current name by G.M. Sproat in 1902 because it resembled Lake Windermere in the English Lake District.[3]: 297  I think Knox Armour is located in the Lakes District. I think their ads are shot in the area.

[@LaviandOllie]

☺️

[@robertsmith4466]

Lake district looked more challenging again but you and the van vans did it. Now you know why I carry a saw.

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes we will have one on the next trip 😜

[@luddite6239]

Both you and the Van Vans have coped admirably with this adventure. Looking back, and with your knowledge of the terrain, if you could go back in time, would you still have chosen the Suzukis, or is there now another bike you feel would have been better suited?

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes we can’t actually believe how well they have coped! What machines! I think these bikes were great for Lavi to get used to riding so for that they were perfect, of course a more off road bike would have coped better but would have also required a lot more skill so maybe that can be for a future adventure ☺️

[@lefturn99]

Those jets - you must have been near the Mach Loop. Check it out.

[@johnimmins7302]

What more can we say, you two just keep going as do those Van Vans. I would find the riding over the very stony ground not an enjoyable experience, I bet you are relieved when you can get a spell on tarmac. All the best John & Penny 'Old and Alive', riders.😊✌🏍

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes we are 🤣 thank you so much guys ❤️

[@Wrong-Way-Round]

Moin moin 😉You're earning your webbed feet guys 😉. Tbh tho' I'm just waiting for 'one' of you to break a mirror on a fall, if you have folding mirrors then it's allways best to fold them in offroad. Folded in they will also block you from looking down at your front wheels (where you shouldn't be looking anyway) but looking ahead. Lavi it sounds like your concentrating on the larger rocks when you see them instead of the flatter/easier area beside/around them. All in all considering the tyres you have and low bikes you're riding you're doing ok💪. Ride safe guys 🤗

[@LaviandOllie]

Thank you so much for the advice 🥳

[@paulreynolds2898]

The cost of putting up a tent for the night is shocking me hugely, I never charged, fed and watered + happy on there way.

[@ImJensenKing]

Lavi you go girl you’ll be crossing India no problem 💪👍 I do wish Ollie had given you a decent rear tyre though he’s made it harder for you maybe swap rear wheels next time 😉

[@LaviandOllie]

🤣

[@MrBeefIOM]

great vid! just starting my own channel as motorbike vlogger in the Isle of Man! hope to get on some cool trips for 2025!

[@LaviandOllie]

That’s amazing! All the best ❤️

[@rabh6746]

Please don't say so far so good Lavi, famous last words as you bite the dust😂It was good of the USAF putting a show in the F15's just for you😉Those wet rocks were insane, well done for getting through guys👍I think a canoe would have been more appropriate for the Lake District😂Awesome video guys👍I got soaked on my e bike today but I got nice rainbow photos😆

[@LaviandOllie]

A canoe 🤣

[@Merthyr-Dave]

Greggs, always a good stop. Everything is so green, blackberry pie would be nice. You done very well, Lavi 10 out 10.🌦

[@LaviandOllie]

❤️

[@britasmith8008]

Hope you picked up some Kendal Mint Cake to give yourselves some energy,

[@LaviandOllie]

We didn’t 😭

[@chr11sf]

👍

[@hassanmekkaoui1]

👍👍👍

[@LaviandOllie]

❤️

[@shaunhickman]

Nice going lavi.. definitely doing very well 👏👏

[@redhotphoenix]

Liking your videos and props to you taking those bikes and showing you don’t need the biggest/best bike to do those rides. Was that the langdales rather than scarfell pike as that looked like you stopped at the old inn?

[@LaviandOllie]

Glad to hear it 😁 They’ve done the job so far (mostly) 🤪 not sure to be honest haha we thought it was scarfell

[@soggybawsmoto]

Epic trails, looking forward to reaching those sections 👍

[@LaviandOllie]

😍

[@GJCPlumbing]

Great Idea getting the Air b+b

[@LaviandOllie]

Oh yes 😅

[@haxan6663]

The Lake District is my favourite place in England, having first gone there 35 years ago. I have ridden in the Lakes, but mostly I have walked there. And it often rains because you have to keep those lakes full?!

[@LaviandOllie]

Haha 😜

[@dcijams]

(10:10) considering the deepest scuba diving I've done was 267ft.

[@gordonsuddery4635]

You on the way to a beautiful part of England love the videos enjoy your time on the trails my best wishes to you from the Philippines ♥️💪👍😉😀😁🏁🛺🏍️🐑🇵🇭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⭐

[@LaviandOllie]

Thank you so much ❤️😍❤️

[@coloradoridgerunner791]

Another great video! Since the majority of the land in the National Parks are privately owned, are there restrictions on the land owner to prevent him from developing the land?

[@LaviandOllie]

Yes indeed 😊

[@dcijams]

(9:25) 2= F 15 fighter Jets

[@1944limni]

doing well thus far ❤

[@LaviandOllie]

❤️

[@keitht3055]

Just a bit of information for you, there is no such water as 'Windermere lake' the word 'mere' actually means lake! So, you are referring to it as, Winder lake lake! There is only ONE lake in the Lake District and that's Bassenthwate Lake, ALL the rest are either Meres, Waters, or Tarns. 🤔.

[@antonioveritas]

Rather like Lundy. Some people call it Lundy Island, but Lundy means Puffin Island, so Lundy Island means Puffin Island Island!

[@LaviandOllie]

Thanks for the info 😊

[@DLowe-ms7wt]

To be a fighter pilot You have to start some place

[@LaviandOllie]

😊

[@mariokuppers5686]

Ofcourse you will do it again Lavi. The German TET waits for you. BTW. Greetings to the US Boys and Girls of RAF Lakenheath to give Lavi and Ollie the Air Show with the trusty F-15

[@davidmatthews3093]

The German TET is pretty underwhelming, there is not a lot of opportunity to ride off-road in Germany.

[@LaviandOllie]

😍

[@cliffordmillington8021]

I enjoyed the video. I can’t understand why you don’t wild camp on them trails you’ve got loads and loads of open fields. Surely you could wild come for free.👍

[@davidmatthews3093]

Most land in England is privately owned by landowners. While wild camping isn't banned, the only way to wild camp legally in England is by seeking permission from the landowner. The only place that wild camping was legally permitted in England was in Dartmoor National Park.

[@ElliotDooleysmith]

Camping in the UK is ridiculously expensive. £31 for a small tent for 1 night is madness. I recently did a week camping around Wales, i did manage to do less than £20 per night, but they were all very basic. It feels like robbery. Especially, places that charge per person, not per tent. It doesn't make any sense that it can be cheaper to get an Airbnb or hotel for less than it costs to sleep in an empty field.

[@LaviandOllie]

So true

[@davidmatthews3093]

How straightforward was it to find out where you were allowed to fly a drone in the Lake District National Park?

[@LaviandOllie]

It was straightforward for us because we never checked 😅

[@stephenbryson5618]

£31 for a small tent next year they might have to take less there killing it rip of that

[@LaviandOllie]

Totally true

[@jednmorf]

If u had done the tet otherway round u would of aced wales,

[@LaviandOllie]

Or have given up 🤣

[@Hoshi_Toranaga]

First I love you guys and I thought about writing it but here goes: Please please please get some training. The way you are peddling your feet you will break your ankles. The trails of this video for examaple I would call very easy if you know how. You are doing yourself a disservice and taking more risk than necessary. I know training is not cheap, especially if the trainer is good, but it does pay off immensely. Just a 2 day introduction to give you guys better body position would make hell of a difference and I am not advertising anything as I am way too far away for you guys to get training here .... I just fear for you guys. With Love!

[@LaviandOllie]

Thank you so much for your kind message ☺️ we’ll definitely get some training at one point ❤️

[@romanianefiltrata8214]

👍💯💫🍀🤩🤟🏍️🖐️

[@LaviandOllie]

[@tonyhewson3630]

Ollie doesn't that speedo not working annoy you ?

[@LaviandOllie]

These bikes can’t break any speed limits 🤣

[@stephenbryson5618]

You need better boots for your feet

[@LaviandOllie]

Oh yes
