Hi All,
So I've downloaded a couple of vids to Dropbox, it works for me but I'd be interested to know if it works for you! 

The route is heading towards Windamere.

We did that road a couple of times while we were up the lakes last year.. We rented a Cottage just outside of Windemere and toured the lakes from one central point.. Highly recomend it to anyone.. was a great time.

I'll second that proteus Rinos and Hardknott I could do anytime 😀

I am a bit concerned by those arrows - do you blokes need constant reminding about which side of the road you meant to be on?

[VladTepes]

Prob for the tourists from Europe?

[KiwiCol]

I noticed the arrows too, was thinking they'd be a bit slippery in the wet conditions. I guess you learn to manage whatever you deal with on a constant basis, still, I wouldn't appreciate them every few hundred yards.

Hardknott looks like the run I do over our 'Port Hills'.  I'm not saying it's exactly the same, but 'my' run is narrow, twisty, no run-off in most places, just over the cliff (with no fences), rough undulating roads & no room to pass.  Sound familiar?

I like that Port Hills run, hones your skills & you have to be alert else you'll end up waaaaay down the hill, the fast way, & probably not be found for ages.  I should put up a video of that, or part of it. I don't have an editor though, just 'raw' footage on my laptop, which I can see fine.

[Red Biker]

It's strange that all you guys noticed that! It never crossed my mind!

The arrow markings are a pain but occasionally they remind you that you are on narrow twisting roads, it only takes a car/lorry to come flying around slightly over your side and it can catch you out.
I guess in general our roads are a lot busier therefore lots more accidents,  so the local council have to be seen to taking some kind of action.

@ kiwicol Ill put the Hardknott vid up over the weekend, the camera was set slightly too low so you only get 30yds of rd directly in front of me and not the breath taking vistas damn it!!!

Cheers

such a shame the weather wasn't better you went through some fantastic scenery and on some brilliant roads .
the arrows on the road are there to try and remind Europeans who drive in the right to drive on the left while over here as there were lots of accidents over the years when they forget which side to drive on to busy looking at everything else  they relax and drift over to the right hand side of the road.

great video's hopefully you'll get back north when the weather is kinder to you .

I am quite lucky in that I live only 50 miles from the lakes.
So in dry weather I do the Lakes and North Yorkshire very regularly.
