Drove this in a BMW Mini Cooper s a few years ago. I was camping with my son in Hawes. Not a very long road really, but quite spectacular. It was raining like it only could in North Yorkshire so we drove accordingly. A tandem riding couple stood out. Back to the Wensleydale Pantry for a meal to finish the day off.
I’m reading a book set in this area & thought I’d have a look at the scenery as a character has just driven this. It’s a good video, but it would of been nice to see more of the countryside rather than just WHIZZING roadway 🫣 maybe cameras at other POV’s? But thanks for taking the time to do it, was still great to put a real view to written words. 🚙
The driver may have a different view of the road ahead vs the camera on the dash and may be able to see further around the corners, over the stone walls. I was there this month. But, on the road that is Buttertub Pass, it was very foggy. This was very clear in comparison. At least I was the only one of a few others. I captured the drive, see the channel: The Cat's Eye. Nice video, MDrives. I enjoyed it, and was nice to see what I missed because of the fog.
I understand that this is a super road, I myself am a fan of such roads, I regard these roads as a racing track or a rally extra, but oh I'm from Russia, we only have such roads in the Urals or the Caucasus, only with not very good asphalt in places🤭😊
In my region there are similar roads, but not as long as in England, especially in your north. France has excellent roads, especially in rural areas ..
done it many times its a great day out for sure with some food to be had at Tanhill inn
That was my orange Exige 350 Sport coming the opposite way! 👍
What are the chances! Regards

It’s difficult to show views when you drive in a group as I don’t get time to stop. I hope you’re enjoy our book. Regards
I did this in my A35 and it scared the life outta me 😅
Haha, I loved it. Definitely adrenaline rush.
👍👍😎😎
👋 thanks for the comment
You wanna slow down pal, you can't see around corners.
I felt comfortable with a margin of safety. I never don’t put myself and others by taking a risk if I’m not confident.

@@Spenny909 thanks. I think you’re correct. Very often camera won’t catch what driver sees. I’ll check your video later!
@@MDrives The speed you went past that sheep at @3:19 had no margin of safety at all. Not smart. Respect the local area.
@@rickparkinmoto hi. It was about 35-40mph. Regards
Drove to fast to enjoy the views and for the safety of other road users, cyclist ,walkers and sheep
Completely disagree. At no point I was driving in a risky manner or broke speed limit.
racing circuit
It’s a great road
