- A fantastic road cycling trip into the Yorkshire Dales National Park in search of scones and Flapjacks. If you are a keen cycling enthusiast and are looking for some ideas of places to ride your bike, then why not take a moment to see what happens when I take the GoPro out for the day.
With maps, narration and so much more, I hope my videos offer you an insight into what it is like to cycle in the Pennines and in the North West of England.
I'm a cyclist and I live in the Pennines...
LOVE IT! I shall be 75 in a few weeks and I often ride out to Burnsall, Linton, Cracoe and district. Brilliant countryside, brilliant riding! Many thanks for posting your videos!
Hello William and all the best wishes for your birthday. You can't go wrong cycling around Burnsall and the Dales which I am sure you will appreciate.
Have a great ride out on the next one, all the best, Darren.
Brilliant hope your weekend has been a good one 👍 😊😊😊
Cheers buddy, I hope you are well 👍
Nice to see my home town Silsden. Lovely cycling around the moors and dales
You have some wonderful cycling countryside on your doorstep there Chris. 👍
Absolutely Stunning scenery, and what exhilarating descents that certainly blew a few cobwebs away at the same time brought back some wonderful memories, as you say Darren cycling heaven 👍😊
Hi Bernice, there's some lovely lanes all around this area. It would be better to film it all as a live stream but I don't think my data allowance would quite cover it.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures that would be lovely, but expensive I guess.
My £10 pay as you go would not cut it Bernice 😁
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures that wouldn’t buy a coffee would it, don’t know how that works though! 😞
Defo a coffee Bernice 😁
FAbulous as always. Thank you. Burnsall is such a beautiful place. Well it all is around there isn't it.
It sure is Chris and it makes you just want to go back for more and more 👍
Beautiful places a great ride out thanks mate loved the video.
Thanks David, the Yorkshire Dales are just wonderful. The place is even more stunning now with all the greenery in full bloom.
Another great vid daz in our beautiful back garden, well done to you both..
Cheers John, it's a nice place to live with so many choices on our doorstep to explore.
great way ro see new parts of the country. good rural miles
Sure thing PW.
I'm into linking Lancashire, the Dales and Cumbria at the moment
Always great to see another of your videos drop! Brilliant ride and filming as always. Sitting in a Dales cafe having got all the way out there on a bike, never gets old. 🙂
Thanks OMC.
I'm slowly ticking the cafes off, one by one 🍰👍
Nice one buddy thanks for sharing and inspiring many to get out, nice to see the Raleigh going strong. Be good to get out. All the best and happy cycling
Hi Andy and thank you for the comments pal.
It's July next week so will message you about that ride out 👍
Another fantastic video daz, the views the filming matey 👌. I can't wait for the double act 😎.
Hello Jay, I have another video to edit where I'm on a solo ride which should be a cracker because I'm off out to the coast at Heysham .
Me and Mike had a really tough 100 miler on Saturday when we took on Dent, Sedbergh and then Windermere and Coniston before descending into Grange over Sands.
Thanks for the kind words 👍
@MrDazP1adv3ntures That sounds very impressive especially considering how hot it was on saterday 🥵🙌🏽
Thanks for another ‘un Daz. Great to find new and interesting lanes.
Hi Sophie, I will start work on the Half Moon video next.
If you want your Selfy with us to be featured in it let me know.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I’ll say yes to that 😄
Hope you are getting lots of miles in.
@sophiescyclingandwalkingch4294 Ok, nice one Sophie,
If you leave a comment on a random video, any you like, I will send you my email address if that's ok. There's no pressure what so ever, then you can send me the pic.👍
Love watching the downhill bits 🙂
Hi Dave, I hope you are well and the fishing is keeping you busy, we all need our hobbies to pacify ourselves. I hit over 55mph the other day down a local hill holding 50+ for a long stretch, if anything goes wrong at them speeds you have had it though
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures it gives you a good "buzz" though mate. Not been anywhere near that speed on the MTB but do love a fast downhill 🙂
Nice ride and when the wind's light the nature sounds add to the sensory overload of dales riding. Had to chuckle at the cafe bird - it knew the routine! The Thorpe road you looped around is incredibly narrow in places - can be a bit flinty after heavy rain - one for the heavy tyres.
Hi Gordon, we had a Robin and a Blackbird feeding out of our hands on Saturday at Bowness.
That ride you did over Wycoller was hilly ! Well done 👍
I did that section once with the ABC gang in January a few years ago and the sun never gets to shine on the tarmac. When I heard them words "Ice" on a descent, the language was choice 😬 had to push the bike in sections it was that bad.
I keep looking out for you on the roads too..
Another great proper ride there mate thanks, lots of helpful & interesting information as you go along. Some nice back lanes there . I had another on Wednesday night go back at my favourite descent which is shap back south the Kendal but also this time I carried on up to Shap and that’s a fast descent I stayed at 40mph for 3 miles without peddling !! Loved it what a rush
I'm with you on that. The long descents which carry speed are definitely exhilarating. Summer is here now and we have to make the most of the warmer weather and to be getting out on our favourite lanes.
Some would say scooby that your very irresponsible travelling that fast and risking life and limb in what can be potentially a dangerous situation, but some would say “bugger it, what a blast” 😂
Sounds absolutely amazing. I’ve only ever been that fast a couple of times and when I’ve looked down at the tarmac underneath me rushing past, i then get a massive sense of being alive….. there’s nothing like it. Your lucky scooby living in such a beautiful place, although I’m not so sure about all those hills. Take care scooby and drop us all a line if you reach that magical 50mph 😳😂👍
@@lcsdw01 thanks there but I would only do such things with experience as I have built up over time . I wouldn’t of done it years ago but you get to know your limits etc , yes my top speed is 52mph down fleet moss but probably never again it was too much , I live in Morecambe so that makes it close to the lakes , Yorkshire and esp the forest of Bowland very lucky
@252Scooby I must admit, I am very impressed with the dedicated cycling lanes and peaceful trails all around the coast up there, plus it's relatively flat.
Have you done the Waddington fell descent into Newton in Bowland . That can be quick on it's day.
Since buying a Garmin GPS (a basic one) I have managed to plot rides well away from the main roads and like yourself Daz enjoy the peace and quiet of the country roads where the only “noise” is pure silence. Around Malham last week was so lovely away from many cars. Would advise any new cyclists to get a sat nav for the bike and don’t rely on memory for your routes as I’ve found since buying mine I’m enjoying my rides so much more and have seen so many “out of the way” villages. Until my heart gets back to full strength I’m loving the rides and especially the “acknowledging” nods or “ow do” from fellow cyclists, really makes me feel like we are a family. 😀
The Garmin's can be fine tuned to suit your preferences and I rely on it quite a bit for live map reading too whilst I am riding. I always look at the map the night before to come up with an idea and have also started to go back to the same places and overlap the routes - a bit like the Olympic games rings on the flag, that way my knowledge is broadened about the particular area.
There were plenty of " How do's " and "Hey up's " on yesterday's ride, I can tell you that.
Wishing you a speedy recovery too ☝
Well done Daz. Look at those views!
Another good route to Brown Bank Lane is via Howden Rd, right after the canal bridge, then left, after cemetery, onto Hawber lane. This leads onto Brownbank, via swatha, and misses out the crossing of Bolton Rd.
Hi Vinnie, it is very addictive when you start venturing out to these places.
Cheers Vinnie, I will take a look on the map.
Another great video keep up the good work
Thank you Andy, it's always a proper ride out when you get onto these country lanes in the Dales
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures some friends and I did Morecambe to Whitby a couple of weeks ago we did some of those towns astounding views
That's a proper ride Andy. I have always found the north of England to be such a great place to explore on your bike.
Yes the double act are back 👌😬
We did Bowness , Hawkshead and Coniston yesterday pal
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures brilliant mate 👌
Jam and butter! 😮 Not any cream?! 😢
At least you still enjoyed it. 😄 👍🏻
I set off too late Sam, the cafe was about to close so jam and butter it had to be. The flapjack was lovely too 👍
Great vid again Daz and what a ride! Love the narration as its good to hear your perspective of the ride. Must take ages to edit but I always get excited when I see your notification pop up for a new video
Thanks Cdwils , I'm loving all of these lanes and linking them into the next ride and getting to know how to flow between the counties.
and yes this video took ages to put together. The maps in particukar take a lot of time to create in Photoshop .
Great video Daz as usual, my sailing respite been cancelled for third time, so hoping to go to the lakes. Will use my mtb bike I have stored at my sisters, keep well mate.
Hi Alan, best wishes to you and the family.
I hope you enjoy your trip to the Lakes. We did a ride out to Bowness and found Dan's shack cafe near the ferry point.
We were feeding Robins from our hands 👍
Loved the vid Daz , I am often caught up while narrating😏but unlike you I never bridge the gap. Our beautiful countryside certainly gives us an extra boost of energy. I was going through to Newton with Bowland from Dunsop bridge and it was just stunning last week in the sun. I even tackled Waddington Fell after that , which is a bit beyond my comfort zone climb wise but I did it. Keep inspiring us!
Hi Terry, anywhere in that area around Waddy Fell is absolutely ace !
and fair play to ya for taking on the climbs.
We might cross paths one day as I'm always out that way.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures You never know Daz , you won't miss me , I am usually on a creaking trek or ridgeback hybrid , back pack(for all eventualities) and blue helmet and of course going very slowly. I once drifted into the path of some veteran cyclists and apologised for daydreaming ...probably of pies one of them commented ;)
@terrydickinson3296 ok Terry, if I see you I will buy you a pie.
Have fun and enjoy the warm sunshine over the next few weeks when you are out and about
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures where did you get to on Sunday?We saw you and Mike heading towards St Michaels.I said to the wife that's Daz and Mike, she said I was sad.😉🙂
Yes you must have seen us Terry, we had a cracking ride over to Roots cafe near Catforth. We cycled down loads of lovely country lanes throughout the course of the route. It is a small world !
I bet it takes ages to edit your videos ,there brilliant ,always look forward to them.
Thank you Matt, this one took a lot of time, in fact I was beginning to think that I wasn't going to get to the end of it. Running two cameras and separate mic for the audio makes the timeline become very clustered and busy to say the least.
mate you do get moving fast on the downhills great loop again hope your well daz cheers
It's amazing how well that 23mm bit of rubber copes with the abuse they get on some rides Tazy T .
All is good at this end.
We had our longest day last week. It's daylight until 11pm almost
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures its amazing mate im a big fat knooby tyre kinda guy skinny ones scare me hehe just had shortest day here rain cold mud luv it mate take care aye cheers
Hi Daz, not been able to get on youtube much recently but glad to see another great video. Got myself up to the cat and fiddle for the first time recently. Hot day to go through the goyt valley but well worth it. Hope you are well. Any plans of coming over this way this year? I have to warn the town if Mikes coming you see. Haha
Hi James, well done for taking on the CAF it's a big old hill for sure.
I might be doing a ride out that way soon. I bumped into a cyclist from the Sale area who watches the cycling videos and he has offered to take us out on a ride.
There's also another person who has a fantastic channel who restores old 1980's bikes who I am hoping to get out with for a ride in Cheshire.
As for Mike, he's going well at the moment but he needs to get some proper inner tubes. He has had a spate of punctures again !
Daz, more music in vids, it’s like a Yorkshire pro mo vid.
Ha ha, some people say less and some say more. There's a fine line between telling the story as if you were there with me riding versus picking a piece of music to bridge the scenes. I am trying to keep the videos flowing the best I can but thanks for the feedback Paul
Now then daz can i ask what make of saddle you use. I changed my saddle to a fizik argo and it was horrendous.
Hi Jay, I use Fabric saddles on all my bikes, including the MTB.
I have found them to be very comfortable and well worth the price for the weight and design of them.
They suit me perfectly .
I have a carbon rail model and the standard Chromoly versions. Can't recommend them enough but I would always try before you buy a saddle.
Hope this helps ...
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures thanks daz that's helps loads 😎🚴♀️
