I remember riding a track once it finished up at a cemetery ,,I thought to my self this is a dead end .😊
Boom, Boom 😂😂
That track presented some more difficult challenges Steve....well done mate
Roger everything is a challenge for me! 😂
Well done yet again! For providing my Friday lunch time entertainment 😂
You seemed to do well on that gnarly track. It looked quite tricky with a fair amount of loose and sizeable rocks. That’s what I mean when I said my instructors said "do it, turn straight around and do it again 2,3 or even 4 times." Repartition is your friend.
Maybe the second pass try standing up.
I try to practice on the flat easy bits to come to a stop while standing , then as the bike starts to move a quarter of a wheel turn or less try to stand up. Almost stand up at the bitting point before moving. I found that can be helpful when you stop on a tricky bit you’re well practiced at starting off again in the standing position.
Back to work,
thanks again.
Duncan as usual some great advice, keep watching as I've got a few off road videos stacked up for release each Friday and I think you'll enjoy them. 👍
Thanks for trying the route! I think I should put a health warning on High Straits Lane - it's a fight isn't it? 🥵
Stuart, it was for me as I’m still learning and gaining experience with off-road riding. 😂
The last lane on video when you come out at the top, turn right, keep on that road for approx half a mile then there's a nice lane of to right brings you back out on the same road as you turned right before start of the lane on video, it's called nipe Lane, regularly ride it on big bikes 790 adventure, Africa twin
Ah yes. Nipe Lane I've seen it. I wasn't sure if it would be too much for me, even one of the local farmers said it could be a bit of a bugger if its really damp. 😂
It's quite technical in places, I reckon you'll be fine 👍
@@neilcollinson6540 I will revisit these lanes in due course and then give Nipe Lane a stab. 👍
Are you local to the dales? I’m near Bedale and just bought an old Honda dominator do some lanes on. Just trying to find a few. I’ve watched a few of your videos, good luck with the channel!
Hi, I’m about an hour or so from these trails which is nothing really. There are plenty of trails in that neck of the woods. If you ever fancy a bit of company on a ride, just give me a shout. 👍
@@701Adventures Definitely! Let me know when your next over this way. Thinking I might get out tomorrow if the weather holds up but not sure which direction to head.
@@czechgirlandtheyorkshireman Drop me an email if you wish to planetgsa@virginmedia.com and I'll keep in touch and hopefully we can organise a ride out soon. 👍
If you ever want a riding buddy or you plan a meet up let me know.
My other half aint keen on me laning solo haha.
That would be great, where are you based?
@701Adventures I'm in based in Lancashire but lived in Skipton and Staithes so spent a lot of time in the dales and north yorks moors.
@@notanotherrick I’d like to do a ride out with some of my subscribers some time, that would be fun. I’m told there is a charity ride this coming Sunday with the TRF etc. It is basically doing Salterfell between Wray to Slaidburn and back, starting and finishing at some tearooms in Wray. Depending on the weather forecast I may attend that 👍
