Feet Up, brew made.. Watch us take on some of the Lake districts toughest trails on our CRF's

Post by nethen1 »



A plan was formed, a route was sourced, the bikes prepped and off we went.
days ride to the Lakes, staying over in a very swish bunkhouse, followed by more trails on day 2. We did some of the lakes greatest trails, starting in Kendal and a few niice warm-up lanes,,,, then straight to breast-high, A beastly trail sometimes, but the little CRFS even fully loaded ate it up.

Mega lunch in Tebay at the truck services then a road ride back to Longsleddale and Gatesgarth pass, up to the gate and back.
Video badly filmed features the decent down.

Day 2 was Langdales and tibberthwaite. thee most vandalized trail I have ever seen. Great, it's still open but for all walks of live a shame, they've tamed it so much. It appears the main complainer has moved from the farm at the end now. Its a bit Like a Dobbies car park but with better views.

ACE day and the weather was kind to us. We finished with a great twilight ride from Grizedale visitors center to Hawkshead, a tough old trail and a top-end to an ace weekend.

Video at the end is of our Bulgaria tours. We can ship your bikes for self-guided adventures, on or off-road or we can provide a fully bespoke guided holiday with your bikes or on our great rental machines.

Hope you like the video :)

Nice one 8-) .
Some of that terrain reminded me of 'The Gap' road in the Brecon Beacons (which I think is now closed to motor vehicles :( ).

(but personally I still think the crf's are too heavy and too tall and poorly sprung as standard)

Agree with the above statement about the rocky sections - FECKING SCARY just watching you loonies spinning and sliding up & down them (but mainly the down bits :shock: )

Thanks for sharing.
