The Lakes

[boboneleg]

Last weekend myself and Barftone went up to the lake district to ride the trails, we had two full days of riding and did all the good ones.

Tony did all the routing as I have never ridden the trails there before, he also took some cracking photos on his new phone, it seems that camera's are obsolete now

A couple of mine first..........

It was just a pit stop although Tony didn't want to rub it better

Super scenery..... haven't visited the Lakes in nearly 40 years (Morris Minor in those days )

Thanks for posting the pics.

Ace set of piccies chaps - thanks for sharing

You've just made my day out in the Yorkshire Dales later this month seem like a walk in the park.

Are those trails easy to locate using normal sized OS map?

Might take a diversion on the way back north once eldest & I have done some Dales trails

Hierarchy of Trails Routes : Cumbria County Council
Cumbria County council are one of the few enlightened areas. With great work by the local TRF. Spend some time and you can soon work out what is legal to ride.

Many thanks for the link.

I have used their site before - a lady in our office used to work for that council and she put me onto it.

Any chance you could let me know which ones you did and which might be F800GS-able (via pm if you'd like to keep everyone else guessing )

Cheers again

There are a few that you could do on the 800 but most are more suited to the smaller bikes

Glad to see that bikes lying down for a rest has not gone out of fashion.

Great pics too.

Cheers Bob - I've had a good long chat with Tony whilst perusing some on-line maps, and my list has grown considerably. Now all I need is the weather to stay dry for the coming weekend . Not much of an "ask" for the Lake district is it!
