    Loved doing this ride last summer, that last bit of hike a bike before the descent into Patterdale is an absolute bastard.

    Thanks for sharing the .gpx file, I used it to do this ride yesterday. Christ, that push/carry up to the top of Boredale nearly killed me though. Good job it was a great descent other side. Cheers

    Hey dude. Great video. We just did this route (posting to our UA-cam tomorrow) but backwards to how you did it. The pay off was sooo much better doing it backwards and the descents were EPIC. We did it on eBikes, and honestly I couldn't imagine doing it on a non eBike. Keep Shredding

    • @TrailFinder

  • @gixxerman69

    Did the same ride a few years back (I got it off PedalNorth.com). The climb up the Knott is hard. I decided (stupidly as it turns out) to of taking the bridleway down the east shore of Ullswater instead of the suggested route through Boredale / Bordale Hause. The was a big mistake as that shore path is unrideible for long periods (I think the official terminology is "technical in nature". I intend to do it again some day but the way you went. Missed out on the lovely descent from Boredale Hause.

Last time I was up stopped in bowness and smashed a load of trails all around the Grizdale area some real epic stuff there, some stuff that doesn’t get mentioned much is just brilliant. Anyway my thoughts on the reverse were some of those downs look more rideable up than the hike a bike stuff difficult to see on videos but would any of the hike a bike bits be rideable down? No point I guess if you have to walk down.

    @RocketMagnetUK 4 роки тому

    I personally find most GPS devices to be inaccurate on both altitude and distance. Basically the polling rate is low to conserve battery hence its a series of waypoints with straight lines between them which will shorten the distance significantly depending on the terrain.
    You'll notice how it massively underestimates Whinlatter due to lots of tight fast switchbacks. If i take out my Ebike the distance matches the official distance as its measured accurately off wheel rotations of known diameter whereas all my GPS devices are anywhere from 10-25% under the actual distance. So riding my normal bike i know it's not correct distance wise (on the Ebike i can see exactly).. done Rigg Beck and Rannerdale the other week and i know its 22.4 miles.. GPS reckoned 17?.
    Altitude is simply fundamental errors in measurement.

    • @TrailFinder
      @TrailFinder  4 роки тому

      None are dead accurate. I can ride with a friend that was the 820 like me. With different results at the end. Just been on a local ride tonight. And used both the phone and the Garmin. iPhone miles: 14.44 total ascent: 885ft. Garmin miles: 13.75. Total ascent 781ft. That’s consistent with other rides I’ve done in the past running both devices. I’m not actually 2 bothered if the mileage is out a little. It’s all about the climbing for me. And when that is out I find it highly annoying.
