cycling from Settle to Kendal - I'm a cyclist and I live in the Pennines.

- A fantastic cycling route from the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park to the historical market town of Kendal in Cumbria. This was one of our best rides to date and we have a habit of saying this on most of our rides. Map of ride www.google.com...
In addition the bike ride I also camped at a well know campsite at Horton in Ribblesdale - Holme Farm which meant that we weren't to far from the Ribblehead viaduct which was on the route as we cycled on towards Dent and Sedbergh before we arrived at our destination which was the Farmhouse Kitchen for a spot of lunch. The route back took us over some rolling countryside passing by Oxenholme and then on to Kirkby Lonsdale with Ingleton and Settle following.
The video comes with a narration, maps and some cycling banter and I hope it offers other keen cyclists some inspiration to get out there and give it a go yourself.
I'm a cyclist and I live in the Pennines.

Brilliant, love it! your videos are becoming a tour guide of the North. I think your videos are some of the best on UA-cam!
Thank you so much Martin, I have been looking at sharing the GPX files in Google maps. Would this help for others to ride them do you think ? I am not sure.
This ride is a pretty good one and the distance is not mega, if you know what I mean .
It's much easier to copy the link into UA-cam from Strava for the routes
Thanks Cwil
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures in the past I have had trouble with gpx files and from memory, occasionally the map doesn't fully translate into Strava 200%. However, saying that, it's better than nothing. Google maps seem to have improved the routes and content for cyclists. The distance doesn't really matter, it is the joy of cycling in new places with the piece of mind that the roads are suitable for cyclists.
Living your best life their daz after that bike ride, well deserved beer 😜
The beer went down a treat Jay after a good ride out in the hills
Another great video 👍
Thanks again Andy your feedback is appreciated
Cracking video 👍🏻
Thanks 👍 What a Shambles, There are so many things that you could film to make these videos and I do try to tell the story as it unfolds, All the best buddy.
Great video as ever. Being a cyclist who was brought up and used to live in the Pennies but now live in Dumfries and Galloway, your videos always remind me of tbe great places to ride around the Pennines. However, just wondered what bike lock do you use for your cafe stops as looks like a great bit of kit.
It's a basic retractable wire lock Andrew which offers a little bit of extra security so long as you can still see the bike. It is avaible in Halfords www.halfords.com/cycling/bike-accessories/bike-locks/onguard-scooby-roller-scooter-lock-491678.html
Thanks for your comments too. Me and Mike fancy a tour around the Mennock pass at some stage which is on our list of places to ride.
That brought back a few memories Daz, some better than others like doing the 50 mile time trial from ingleton and back over Ribble head,not fun last time I did it cold freezing rain with just a ski suit on. But I really enjoy looking at your channel.
Cheers William, I bet that's a tough 50 miler with your head down giving it some when there's so much great countryside to look at.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Exactly, but it's one of those life's phases we all experience.Before bike racing,I did lots of touring all over England, Wale's France Portugal, camping mostly. But everything I've done on a bike I've enjoyed it all. Keep em coming Daz all the best Bill.
Sure thing Bill, you get to see it all on the bike which is why we do what we do.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I road my bike to work all the time,in all weather only exception was snow, I think I was the only one at the hospital that road a bike to work. Take care D.
That's good to hear, I too cycle to work daily in all weather's year in year out. I must have saved tens of thousands of pounds in fuel Bill.
Special ride that I know because much of that I’ve also experienced. Yeah the cowgill climb is tough & the decent back down is fast and dangerous. Planning on looping the howgills again this week it’s a good loop .
Anywhere in that area offers you a great cycling experience and if you like hills, that's even better. We have another video from this area coming up soon.
was u out today about 6pm a cyclist in a yellow hat yellow t shirt came up past the old original
I was out in a yellow kit this evening on a local loop through Heywood and Castleton
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures must have been someone else this was near scouthead
Cyclings great but Daz you inspired me to take up gold prospecting . I keep checking the channel for the your latest gold rush episode and there's nothing . Please dont tell me you have give up mate.
Hello Andrew, I am planning on editing a load of gold panning videos for this autumn from my trips out to the rivers over the year. All I can say is please bear with me buddy
Another Top vid Daz purely cycling heaven 👀👀 keep em coming mate 🚴♂️💨💨
Hello Geoff and thanks for your comments, me n' Mike really enjoyed this one. Otley next......
That looked like a beautiful (and very lumpy) ride Darren. Great camera work and editing as usual.
We both enjoyed this one Steve and thanks for the kind words about the editing.
I'm working on the Otley ride as we speak.
Take care pal.
Belter of a route Daz. Thanks for sharing....was a really good video
Thank you Cwil, Me and Mike really enjoyed this one
Your video editing efforts are paying off Daz, these videos are always such a great watch.
Thanks for the kind words there 👍
They take a lot of my spare time up these days, a bit like doing a large jigsaw puzzle without a picture to refer to, but it is all part of the hobby .
Keswick ride next which was another fab day out on two wheels.
Agree with all the comments Darren, I really appreciate the hard graft that you put in to make these, a real pleasure to watch and always look forward to the next one.
Thank you so much Sam, I am passionate about my cycling as I am about editing the videos. This was a really good ride to take on though and was right up there in our opinion. The next video is a trip out to Ilkley...
I want to know what Mike's teddy is called 🤣😂 another beltin video Daz. Can't beat a bit of whooping and hollering going downhill 😁
I think it's called Contador Di or as he says, my little Conti .
He won't go camping just yet, but I will have another chat with him. I think he's like the stig and sleeps with his helmet and sunglasses on.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures 🤣😂🤣 awwww Mike's named his teddy after Alberto. I bet if he kips with his helmet on he's got crazy helmet hair 😆
M8 have you stopped the sniping videos
I have a load of gold videos to edit Colin which I'm hoping to get started on in the Autumn . Thank you for letting me know though.
Great ride, I like the routes you plan, looking forward to seeing more rides, ask Mike if I can have his bianchi 😁 would love a bianchi but don’t have the budget, I’m using a Halfords innate alpha 13😂 refurbed it through lockdown in candy red
I think we would all like to have an Italian thoroughbred Mark but if your bike gets you out and about and then it can't be a bad thing. My winter bike is a converted Kona MTB, it's slow as hell but proper comfy. The next ride is out over to Otley so stay tuned for that one buddy.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures maybe one day, gotten really into cycling lately, mines a cyclocross running 700c X 35, does really well, surprising lots of kit that’s available these days to convert bikes, changed mine all to SRAM and love it, it’s like new, both your bikes are really nice, look forward to seeing the Otley ride, ride safe
I bet the 35mm tyres are nice to ride on Mark and yes I agree , Sram is good stuff too. It sounds like you have made a good bike there .
Thanks MrDazP1! Totally amazing scenery. You caught it before it all went brown! :o)
Hello Surrey GP. I've noticed the hills are looking more of a yellow colour in some places now. We need a spot rain to move the gold too.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Really parched in the South now, and a few wildfires. Yep, I was in the Forest of Dean recently and the streams were almost dry. But maybe it is the perfect time to work some of the big rivers...
It's always a good thing to see what the rivers are like when they are really low.. it gives you a different perspective.
I believe the SE of England's had no rain for months !
Fab video ❤ lovely views hi daz and especially you Mike 🤣 but its cream 1st then jam 🤣 xx
Thanks Joanne, cream first , always 😁. I will tell Mike too about the comments. I have asked him to comment on the videos but I don't think he is quite there yet.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures just thought of a fab idea say to Mike there's a free black pudding for him if he posts on your video lol xx
Now that might just work Joanne, the Black pudding is like the governor on deal or no deal for Mike.
Cracking stuff Daz. Today I rode 52 miles including that section from Kirkby Lonsdale to Oxenholme, pretty hilly as you say. There were so many familiar sections to me. I love it up there too, how could you not? Brough is pronounced Bruff Daz.
I did the 3 peaks in June, started and finished at Ribblehead at 6.30am start to beat the heat. Consumed 3 ltrs of water and even bought an ice cream in Horton. Plus about 10 granola bars. Strangely I haven’t wanted one of those in ages.
Well done for the half century today Sophie, especially on them rolling hills and thank you for the Brough pronunciation I never knew it was "Bruff"
The Yorkshire three peaks is a proper tough walk too. I have done it on quite a few occasions and each time I said never again. The bit I am enjoying now is being able to cycle down the roads that I once looked at whilst being high up on the summits of the places we visit.
Hopefully it will be a bit cooler for the next few weeks and we can get back to normal again.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I take it Mike doesn’t like camping 😂😅
Not at all !
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures 😆
Great ride again mate
Thank you Robert, the Yorkshire Dales and Cumbria blend nicely together to make for some fantastic riding
Just catching up on your videos Daz after being away on holiday, as you say about your rides well the videos they just get better and better.
You and Mike deserve some sponsorship 😁 one bad point cant believe Mike converted you to jam before cream 🤔🙄🤣🤣🤣 well done gents 🚴♂️🚴♂️😎☕👍
Hope you had a good break Terry. The scone debate continues and I love it 😁
Thanks for the video feedback too, we put a lot of effort in trying to create watchable cycling content and we are yet to find a sponsor 🤔.
(Only joking)
Thanks once again for taking the time comment , all our comments are greatly appreciated.
a bit emotional for me to watch you do Dent, sedbergh and Kendal. i grew up in Sedbergh and recognise so many scenes from those Halcyon days of childhood as you cycle past them. makes me homesick for the past. It was a beautiful place to grow up and i would dearly love to live in that area again. Great ride gentlemen thanks
I bet you have some fantastic memories from living here Jim. The whole area is just wonderful and out if the way from it all.
For a moment I thought you were joining the bike-packing brigade when I saw the title😅 Kudos to you both on a great ride.
I'm not quite there yet Tim on the bike packing side of things but I've got everything I need to give it a go .
It's good for thought .
