Nice one Philip. Plenty of energy in a rice cake. It's tough doing this sort of stuff and by the time you get back to the camp, you know you have had a work out 👍

It's been a cracker. Poggy looks good this time around 👌

I have a few hobbies Matt and it's good to mix things up after a busy time at work

It is well reputed to be very pure gold up here

Hi James, I try to tell the story and keep it down to earth for all to enjoy.

Hello from this side of the pond James 👍👍

Hello Bernice, It's been a bit of a drab summer to date but receiving this comment has just brought a bit of sunshine into this corner of the Pennines. I do hope that you are well

He loves a good walk through this forest and dip in the river.

Where ever possible I would seek permission but that can be easier said than done. Personally, I'd go for a picnic and find a lovely quiet spot where nobody will bother you and you are out of site and out of mind. You may see the odd sign stipulating no fishing, but never no panning - unless you are in certain parts of Wales.

Thank you for the advice 😊 I was thinking something like that might be the best approach. Just come across your channel, probably going to watch a few episodes. Thanks

@tomwestley5487 cheers Tom. Leadhills is just an hour or so north of the Lakes and you can get a permit for there

We hit all them lanes today then over to High Bentham via Eldroth. The return leg took us on a cracking back lane to Clapham which linked up with the WOTR into Giggleswick.... The list of places was endless. I hope you are well my friend and best of luck with future rides.👍

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures can’t beat those lanes. Enjoy the rest of ‘summer’. Hoping the weather is better when we go in September!

Me too John ...

All the best with your move to sunny Manchester. I've had a few trips out to the rivers this year and really enjoyed the peace and quiet that you get with gold panning. If only the river Irwell had gold in it 👍🙂

I moved bk about 3 years ago buddy we used to talk on your channel my old youtube name was Aaron Kelly until i changed it when i launched my own youtube food review channel you will remember me as Aaron buddy​@@MrDazP1adv3ntures

Ok, yes, no worries. How's the channel developing

Rome wasn't built in a day my friend steady slow growth buddy ,editing was hard to learn cos i am a tech dinosaur 😂​@MrDazP1adv3ntures

@Thefatfoodiemcr editing can be extremely time consuming. It has to be part of the hobby for it to work in my opinion

The Yorkshire Dales, Andy. It's a win win when the sun is shining 🌞👍

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Absolutely. Got some half decent rides in between the showers. Am off to North Wales at the weekend. Fingers crossed....

Best of luck buddy, we hit another 100 miler again today in the Dales

I said the same to Mike, there were loads out around Bolton Abbey. And then it absolutely poured it down on Tuesday 😩. We need more sun 🌞🙂

Hi Jay, you could try Deda Elementi Handlebar Tape. It comes in a variety of colour and is available from Halfords. It's not going to break the bank either so you could afford to replace yearly if it became tatty.

@MrDazP1adv3ntures Hi, thanks for that, daz. I really appreciate the advice.

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures fantastic daz really appreciate that 🤓

Cheers Pollatso. It is nice little spot to spend the afternoon for sure 👍

Hi Gazza. It's always reassuring to have some low gears to fall back on, especially when you know your going to be up against it on a big ride. The Lakes is second to none. I love it 👍

Hey up 252. That descent either side of Pendle is seriously quick. Take care in the wet buddy👍

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures yeah cheers did do I kept it under 45 but if was dry would easily been 55 , caution & experience was needed today and got back just fine , and that barley climb is a tough steep little bugger 😥

If you plan a ride around that part of the Pennines you can easily do an 8000ft in a ride

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures yeah easy and it was interesting seeing some areas that you have filmed around like Whalley

Cheers buddy

It's a funny old world James, where we are kept on a tight leash and controlled by the authorities. I was watching Bryan, the American Gold Prospector, using a gravity dredge. Such a simple idea and yet banned in many countries.

Hello Thomas, I have a few cycling videos to get through so please stay tuned buddy 👍

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures will do daz dont worry, everytime i go out for a ride i find myself thinking," Daz would be able to tell me all about that hill/lake/valley hahaha

Ha ha ha, I'm watching the Tour De France now and the commentators have pages of historical information about the chateaus and cathedrals for our entertainment, where as me and Mike. Well Mike, thinks that the Romans built everything during the battle of Hastings 😊

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Hahahaha gotta love the black pudding man lol

Enjoy the summer. 🤔I think summer was on Monday 😁It just can't stay sunny for more than two days. Sounds like you had a good ride Terry, especially with a ferry thrown in for good measure

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures it all comes the same I am just as knackered on the flat probably with constant pedalling and not getting a breather freewheeling. I will try again tomorrow maybe up to Whalley and Downham, weather permitting. Winter bike again.

@terrydickinson3296 lovely place Downham and a bit hilly too. All the best and enjoy Terry

It stayed dry for me to do the Downham ride via Ribchester and Whalley on the Trek rather than the winter bike! Nice and cool with hardly any wind, so the ride home wasn't the usual torture.

Hi Matthew, unfortunately I didn't take the GoPro cameras with me on this ride. It was just a good old ride out into the Dales .

In my local area I would say that Edgeholme lane near Halifax is right up there. It's ridiculously steep and cobbled.

It can be a grey area. The land owner may not own the river. The river authority may not have the rights to the minerals. That is why sustainable prospecting is key. Throw it back once you have found it, ready for the next person .

Hi Jbss, it's such a grey area. The land owner may not own the river. The river owner may not own the land. Neither may own the mineral rights. It's a good job that I always put the gold back to keep the hobby sustainable 👍

Glad to hear but just for the sake of honesty ive reported this vid to the police and national trust of scotland. ​@@MrDazP1adv3ntures

Me too ! Mike's on Chicken wraps these days and I tried Millionaires shortbread yesterday 😊

Me too Roger, I need to get a series of gold panning videos done and then focus on the cycling once again. Thank you kindly for the comment 👍😊

Ha ha ha, made me chuckle that Escort HQ. It's not everyone's cup of tea but I have loads of hobbies. Ben Foster created the Cycling GK channel, Maybe I could become the Cycling GP (gold panner) lol 😁

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I think you're more cycling BP....black pudding 😉😁

@@escorthq5060 Shhh Mike with a GoPro would shut CZcams down 🤣🤣

Hey up Rasta 👍

I didn't take the GoPro out on this ride. Me and Mike just went out for gentle tootle into the Dales and then it became a grand tour.

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures haha i dont blame you, sometimes you just want to ride your bike Daz, no messing, no complications, no filming...just ride, over the hills and far away. . .I feel a song coming on!! 🙂

@@Nosh_Feratu Yes - something like that ...

Just a quick hello Buddy, I have got a few gold panning videos to get through and share with the prospecting community but thanks for feedback. Always appreciated.

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures yes I've been watching parts of them. I don't do prospecting but it's good watch still. I can imagine making these videos is a job in itself especially with all the editing and voiceovers you do. Good to see you back anyway!

It is like having a second job ! but I do enjoy the creativity aspect to it all. I will get back to the cycling videos in the coming months though and thanks once again for sharing an interest👍

Over one hundred miles on the front yesterday Steve. Mike loved it 😁

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Brilliant Daz, both of you looking sharp and ready for action. Think I can speak for a lot of us, we’ve missed you both. 😀👍

@@lcsdw01 Cheers Steve. We will always be be somewhere or somewhere abouts for the foreseeable future

Best of luck buddy and let us know how you get on 👍

Nice one, I'm sure you will find a wee nugget on your travels and adventures buddy. Watch out for the gold fever though...

@@MrDazP1adv3ntures oh it’s got me hooked, wishing my weekdays away to just get out in the highlands at the weekend. Nice wee spot you found there, pity you didn’t have your sniping gear.

It's got some potential. I just need to keep searching around this area pal.

Hi Bobby, Unfortunately I never got the opportunity on this trip as I just went panning every day and put all of my finds into a separate snuffer bottle after taking the final pan pics. In fact I need to empty it out now ready for my next visit to a river.

Thank you JonesTJ...👍

Thanks Buddy, it's nice to have a bit of fun every now and then 👍🌞

Thanks Robert, I have a few trips out now and I must admit I have missed it

It's a funny old place up there. I have met people with show cases full of nuggets but I guess you need to be a local and keep clearing the same spot until it's just bedrock.

Yes that's right, you just never know what kind of day you will have, but with the sun shining and blue skies, it makes for a good one either way 👍

There's quite a fair bit of consistent small gold on this spot with odd bigger piece. I'll settle for that 👍

There was a lot of wire gold in the pan and even the tiny pieces looked course with the lens on full macro.

Hi Steve, I enjoy filming, what ever the subject. It's trying to tell the story that can be the tricky part. I have a day off today so me and Mike will probably head out towards Bolton Abbey . Nice day for it...
