That road is superb, ride it a few times each year and have done over the decades. But far too busy now on nice weekends, plus too many knob jockeys. Fortunately, now retired I can enjoy it on a weekday 😉
Used to love hammering my scooby up to the cafe at the top get my lunch and hammer it back down the other side to the lakes. Only when i couldn't see any others
Porsche was very lucky not to have a head on but the Audi tried cutting the corner to keep up with that crazy gsxr. Problem was he didn't realise the Porsche was there so had to go around him. This caused the sudden weight shift and predictable loss of traction. Unlucky i guess but fortunate not to get too badly damaged.
If you were thinking can a 40 year old Audi keep up with a bike up hartside the answer is simply no , but must say it’s self parking , technology was way ahead of its time , 🏍👍👎👍👎
@@peterjackson1133 yeah ive no doubt they have been dusting bikes , I could see from the footage it was fair shifting , I actually followed it home, and it was spitting out enough turf to lay a lawn , and to be fair it must be tough as hell as it didn’t look to badly damaged , 🏍👍
I’ve got a mate who lives up at Alston, they feel like they’re in the middle of a game of Gran Turismo sometimes going to work or when popping to the shops at Penrith. I do love seeing some of the cars and bikes on the pass, but those mixed with the bicycles, the local traffic, the bikes and the heroes ‘pressing on’ it does feel a bit hazardous at times! Fortunately the Audi driver karma’d themselves, but could have been so much worse had there been another car/bike in the wrong place. Cheers for the video anyway, it’s a great bit of road, and shame about the cafe.
Audi doing a bit of uphill gardening 😂
Nice Griff 500, had many a TVR (6), and it’s great watching the various bike types.. I currently have 7 of them 😄🤙🏽

I rarely ride on a weekend now because of all the wannabe Michael Dunlops. Midweek is awesome and quiet 😊

Nobody going to mention the awesome tractor horn !
Think it was Darude - Sandstorm ?
Audi quattro rally heritage seen at 4 minutes. lol
With so many of these cars and bikes I just think: "What's the point? You're just cruising...."
11:10 nice to see a supercar being used
Was so hoping that was a genuine 6R4. Oh well.
3:44 that was a shock
Aww man. Had I have known there was a recording I would have given it the beans

Did make me chuckle
So pleased a biker was not caught up by Audi
The bike at 3:00 sounded absolutely lovely anyone know the model?
Triumph speed twin 1200 custom I'm sure bro
Porsche got lucky at 3.45
Who ever is riding that 46 supermoto 🔥
Looked like a Svartpilen 701.
Sunday!
Oh sorry the old Audi made me laugh! Lets hope the Procon Ten werent set off!!
Typical you turn up and someone's nicked the best parking spot,what do you do?.
Make yer own.
Thought it was an odd place to park when I passed!
They might be testing to see if a scran van would fit,would be nice to get a coffee now the cafe rebuild is forgotten about.
😂

I'm a keen cyclist but would definitely steer clear of Hartside, especially when the Audi's are out!
