Lake District Passes

[Lunepilot]

Had a Potter Through the Lakes on Sunday 200 miles in all and managed to do 4 of the Passes.Saw quite a few Fellow Tossers heading in the opposite direction were you one of them ?

Kirkstone Pass



Honister Pass


Buttermere


Crummock Water



Hardknott Pass


Wrynose Pass


I only live about 45 minutes from the Lake District and on days like this you realise how lucky you are to have this on your door step.

I agree, we are very lucky having this kind of scenery on our doorstop. It was a gorgeous day yesterday and it would have been rude not to take advantage of it, so I was out and about on my Yellow GSA, starting in the Lakes then heading towards the Dales.

I headed up to Broughton-in-Furness for breakfast, then up to Coniston, Ambleside, Kirkstone (about midday), Pooley Bridge, Hartside, Alston, Middleton-in-Teesdale, Brough, Kirkby Stephen, Sedbergh, Devil's Bridge, Bullbeck, then home.

Cracking day!

It was gorgeous up there.

In return, if anyone wants to come and experience the exact opposite of the Lake District - the Romney Marsh, low and flat - please feel free. At its best on a wet Tuesday in February!

(Seriously, I reckon you could easily fill a day riding all the roads and lanes on the Marsh, with a seaside fish and chips and ice cream thrown in.)
