The lakes is just an amazing place to be, regardless of activities but some decents look 😮scary😅when i did the gravel epic, that was mind blowing and the weather was typical lake district weather, rain 😂😂😍👊stay safe and sound mate
That has to be your gnarliest challenge yet!
Brilliant vid! My shoulders couldn't cope with that now. Great to watch 👍
I do miss living in Ambleside. Some amazing riding.
I have to say Andy, that’s got to be my favourite video that you’ve made mate, I know some people are a bit anal about long videos but as far as I’m concerned, bring them on especially when they’ve got this kind of content, I’m not scared of heights but some of near vertical drops right by your side made me a little anxious, I think you’d make a superb MTB guide because your knowledge of the Lake District and Peak District is faultless, keep up the great quality buddy 👊
What an epic ride that was, it looked like extremely hard work on those descents, i think my arms would of dropped off haha, that's proper hiker bike, definitely a few wow moments in this one, fantastic video 👍
Jesus, my toes curled all the way through, I'm scared of heights and go pro actually made you realise how steep the downhill was and going right on the edge. Very brave. Gorgeous views mate x
Epic! Scenery does all the talking Mate. 👍
That was absolutely unbelievable!
I’m gonna say better than anything I’ve ever seen or ridden! Tempted to bunk off work and ride it ! Well done to you both for that upload!!
….Brilliant video Andy …..what a place to ride . I love the sheer exposure on some of those trails when you know too much speed and lack of concentration could cause disaster ……but to have that vista in front of you ….as you said Wow ! I’m not so sure I’d enjoy carrying the Levo on some of those hike a bike bits 😂 . Well rode mate ….it was great to meet you last week on Jason’s ride
Fantastic riding mate, like most of your viewers, it’s a watcher not a doer. 👍
Brutal !!! Well done !!!
Fantastic effort! I’ve hiked most of this lot over the years and it’s tough enough walking. Excellent 👌
Fantastic, I've got to go up there one day and do two or three of those passes!
Another great route & vid, thanks again for the .gpx, looking forward to giving this one a go. Mind you I have such a heavy eMTB I would struggle to shoulder it on some of those climbs, so might have to rethink; pity as the descents look great. Cheers
Wow, this looks like an epic all day ride, saving it for summer!
Fantastic video once again Andy
Superb footage..you put the work in on that one, top riding bud.
That is definitely one of the top rides in England and the UK !!!!! You should be well pleased with your riding particularly that last descent !! Thanks for some great filming as well....quality and content!!!!
Wow can't believe that ive only just stumbled to this vid absolutely mtb at its best ive hiked haystacks the first descent then do the styhead to seathwaite farm. They are a good hard hike let alone biking them great effort and brilliant vid mate 👍
Some nice controlled riding on Warnscale
Amazing channel! This kind of riding is my dream. Gotta take a trip here. Thanks, great videos.
Amazing views!
How the heck you did those descents God only knows, you must have arms of steel! But fantastic scenery. I think that Rick guy is a robot
Did this route las year on a Trek Rail eMTB. Too heavy to carry so pushed with walk mode which was very hard work but a beautiful ride. Have 625Wh battery and took charger and topped up in Wasdale Head Inn, but actually would have made it with 25% remaining even without the top up.
Love wainwright's favourite lake, Buttermere and the hay stacks on your left, fantastic views boys😀👍❤️🇬🇧
Looks an absolute beast of a ride. Stunning scenery all of the time. The hike a bike sections looked grim, don't fancy lumping my 15kg bike up some of those climbs, but worth it in the way down I guess
I thought that about my 25kg ebike
Epic, vid, ride and scenery, but much too hard evan downhill so I'll stay on the setee and watch rarther than in the saddle, great viewing as always.
What an absolute banger Andy .. two of my youtube stalker victems ;) and a right good vid of the 4 pass challange . Thank you
45 minutes mate... and yet I was engrossed from start to finish. Absolutely epic mate, video and ride. Warnscale has been on my list for a long time and this has cemented that it's got to be done. I've done Black Sail years ago, thought the top was a bit crap and the bottom half amazing (I was on a Santa Cruz Chameleon with box section chainstays though) and have pushed up Sty Head, remember thinking that it wouldn't be all that as a descent because of the rocker dockers. Would be better than what we did do that day though, which was try and ride down Rossett Ghyll. Never, EVER, try to ride down Rossett Ghyll.
You know the problem with all this riding you are doing in the Lakes is, don't you?
The Dales are going to seem far too tame 😃
Riding down Rossett Ghyll? Holy shit, that must've been a bad day. 🙂
It's bad enough dragging a bike up there, never mind down.
@@shonaridley7170 it was interesting, for sure. Walked one bit; could see a line but the cost of failure would have been a call to Mountain Rescue for sure 😃
Outstaning mate!! Hopefully i can do this one on a crisp clear winters day!
That was a helluva' effort! Awesome riding and vid.
Great job on the vid really captures the day 👍
Never fancied it but looked epic. Really nice looking Yeti too :)
looks amazing again but wouldnt really wanna be dragging my norco up some of those cliffs lol
Big Balls and Skill Lads Grate Video
That’s one epic ride, well done Andy and Rich 👍
Some of those drops looked a little scary. If I was a bit younger 😅
This looks brutal but epic
😮😮😮 Awesome!
Fantastic ride what a great video too thank you for sharing fantastic views
Ps, on your malam video you went via the bottom of Ingleborough do you have a komoot gpx for that ride ?
There is a strava and trailforks gpx but I'm not premium where as komoot iam
I can forward my details etc if your OK about sharing the file
Thanks keep up the great work
Amazing ride Andy. A little above my skill level i think but fantastic scenery
epic vid that matey
Wow
awesome is an often over used word. fully justified for this video though. cracking route.
As you were doing the first descent it looks quite close to the edge, how aware of that were you? Sometimes I watch videos where it looks quite close and perilous, but when you're actually on it the path is wide enough for it not to bother me - what did that feel like Andy?
Your best yet Andy. I've walked most of that route, on separate occasions, over the years and know how rough it is in places. The idea of doing it on a bike just doesn't appeal to this old fart!
Fuck that last descent 🤣 42:26
This looks amazing. Would you say the hike a bike is do able with an E bike. I have dragged my E bike up dolly wagon pike which was a killer but it was do able.
Love all your videos and your type of riding matches mine - just getting out there in the wild! I've retired and I'm looking to move to get closer to where I can ride and walk. My wife loves the Dales and your videos have convinced me that this might be the place. If you could live anywhere to best indulge your sport straight out the door and convenient for Lakes, Dales and N. York Moor, where would it be? Started looking from Skipton to Penrith and Harrogate to Richmond. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
I personally live in Harrogate. Which is such a great location. I can get anywhere in the dales with in 30 mins to an hour.
1 hour to the moors. And 2 hours to the lakes. Also 1 hour 30 to the peaks. Perfect
If you want to come straight out of your door to ride settle maybe a good place to look. But that limits you to the dales and lakes.
@Trail-Finder Thanks for the reply. Appreciated! Your gpx files along with the videos are a fantastic resource for riders like me to easily find great days out. Keep up the good work!
Could I ask please which Garmin mount you're using here that allows for the Exposure light in front? I used to mount my Garmin on my stem but it no longer fits there when I have the Exposure light fitted. Cheers!
I may have answered my own question. I've just ordered the Exposure stem quick release bracket so I'll give that a go!
Which Garmin do you use for routes?
Which garmin navigator you using andy
It’s the Garmin 1030 plus.
