After coming through a load of mountain passes which sounds like fun but was hell due to it being massively foggy/misty over the mountains, that and the gallons of water that was pissing down on everyone
We piccy of the train at the cafe down from one of the mountain passes
The ultimate in lunchs after a wet ride over the passes. hmmm i can still taste it now......hmmmm
After a wee pee stop i noticed this, Keithblade trying to see if he can pass off the KTM as a proper bike!!!
Big dave looking very happy and GULG trying to explain to Bear how to get back to the campsite after his misguiding of the road ride out on Friday.
GULG "right go to the end of the lane turn left, end of that left and if you go too far you will get to a roundabout do a U turn then your turning will be on the right, ok"
Bear "yea no probs!!!"
Bears mind " now that was a left then right roundabout U turn, what. Its right yea its right!!"

Sunday
Most people where leaving on sunday so packed up and where leaving in the morning so i got a nice wee present in the morning. 2 Burgers, 8 herby sausages, a loaf of bread, half a pint of milk, 1 full pack of digestive biscuits and a half pack of hob nobs. Cheers guys they were very nice.
Markymark and i where staying on till monday so decided to head up to the hartside cafe as the new Kawasaki Versys was being press released and test rides where going. Heres a piccy of part of the road up. Lovely and twisty and not too damp. Note the weather, looks ok right?
Got about half way up the mountain and then it turned out like this, couldnt see for love nor money, windy and raining like needles. Piccy from the top outside the Cafe where later on we meet Skunkmoto on his way home from the meet all fully loaded.
Markymark and I decided to go back down to the low land where the good weather was so went back to Penrith direction and headed to do a loop of the lakes when we spotted this.
Reminds me of Steved and Keithblade!! (You decide whose the women and whose the bloke!!)
We stop somewhere near Cockermouth with a nice castle view in the back round. Note everyone who was there Friday and Saturday, look at the lovely blue skys and 15+oC heat. hahahahah
We did a massive loop down the west coast right the way to the bottom of the Lakes only stopping really for a lovely steak and onion bageutte and petrol. Camera refused to take focused pictures so the next photo was coming up to the Hardknock pass which i could acutally see this time!!!
