Hi Peter, Just for the record, I don't usually stroke the tarmac but it was some of the best I've seen in a while 😁. We are so fortunate to have all if these fantastic cycling lanes on our doorstep too 👍
Thanks Andrew, I am trying to get Mike involved more but he's now talking about wanting a cut of the prophets. We do not claim a penny from the videos either. We can't even get a sponsor for the Black puddings ...
Yet another brilliant video and ride Daz. I'm supposedly cycling through Arnside tomorrow on the way back to Lancaster. Booked on a sportive. Weather forecast is proper northern. You two do make me laugh. Mr Blackpudding man indeed,
It's nice and flat around some parts up there pal. I checked the Wiggle website for Conti tyres but couldn't find any at £22 . They must have sold out.
Hello Steve, I hope you are well. We have got a few videos under our belts now that need editing so I'll start to get stuck into them but they take a lot longer nowadays with all the extra detail I am putting in there .
sorry I missed the live one Dazzer. Just got home and tuned in straight away. Love that last decent - what a beauty: It's one of those that really "calls you" all the way down. Brilliant stuff - thoroughly enjoyed watching - thanks for posting.
It is a place that I have passed by many times now over the last year or so and am slowly getting to know how all the little places link up. You have some cracking countryside on your doorstep by the sounds of it then pal.
Some great facts along the route 😊, good idea showing a route without too much "A" road stuff. That drop through the Trough still scares the S**t out of me. Let's hope for a bit of decent weather and I can get out and find some new routes.
Thanks Terry, the quieter lanes are better in summer so long as the farmers don't mess them up too much. We did a ride last Sunday in Cheshire and the roads were caked in a brown sludge from the fields. It's not good for your rims and drive train but all in all, yes I agree with you finding back lanes and using main roads to link up in between .
Smashing ride lads and the weather looked pretty kind. I've never been over there as a cyclist so it's nice to see new areas - very impressed by the quiet lanes and decent surfaces - and as a bonus I now know the true origins of Giggleswick. Win-win.
It is a great area to explore on the bike Gordon because of it's borders with the 3 great counties. I take it you have the official origins of Giggleswick as opposed to Mike's Roman theory around the Norman conquest times then
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I stayed near Carlisle for a couple of years and there was a similarly wide range with Lakeland mountains passes, coastal roads and the deserted border hills - it's nice to have so many options. Wait, you mean Mike's theory *isn't* official? It is now.
@clippingin1593 Mike thinks a lot of things happened in 1066 Gordon.🤔 I've cycled around Carlisle too and it gets pretty flat in places up there which surprised me. Duncan Mcnut has a cycling channel and he rides from MaryPort out that way quite often. He can do the mountains or do the flats or both.
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures I raced with VC Cumbria for a couple of seasons & got to know all the great back roads. I'll have to check out the Maryport videos to bring back a few memories!
Thank you Hilland Beck for the heads up about the Silverdale Cafe, I think I have seen it on my travels and it is a place we will no doubt be cycling to in the future
Thank you John, it was a nice ride like you said and the memories of the day out continually flash by when you go back to work which makes you want to do it all over again the following weekend .
Thanks Sophie, we've done a few rides but I haven't filmed them all. I'm not sure what the next video will be either, I've a load to edit and am months behind.
Nice to see both of you out and about enjoying the roads and the views. Must admit I nearly lost my brew over the large poultry comment 🤣😂 keep em coming Daz 👌👌
It is a lovely place to ride your bike and I would thoroughly recommend a trip out here to anyone. Apologies for the poultry comments, I should have known better but It looked bigger in real life - honest . On a serious note I have had to edit loads of things out over the years because we talk about a lot of inappropriate stuff and should know better.😬
Hi Jay and thanks for the great feedback, the editing is taking much longer these days with trying to fit things in around work commitments and day to day jobs at home means they can about a month to slowly put together.
Very entertaining Lads, it was like listening to Morecambe & Wise with fabulous scenery to boot, had to smile at Mike’s knowledge of flora & fauna, I’m saying no more except for thanks for a very enjoyable ride 👍
He Bernice , I hope you are well and getting the miles in on the turbo trainer. Mike's knowledge of English country flowers is extensive to say the least 😁
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Still getting the miles in or as the stupid auto corrupt would have it ‘mules’ about the cream scone not to cause any trouble but I thought jam first as it is heavier, but it’s all going the same way so let’s just enjoy 😊
Good to hear. I like your theory about the Jam being heavier too Bernice, I guess it keeps the centre of gravity lower and reduces the risk of the scone toppling over.
Hi Chris, it's an On- going debate about the scones, the funny thing with this ride was that they didn't do Black puddings or scones with cream 🤔 Mike was not impressed !
Hi Tony, Thanks for asking 👍, I am working on a Bowness ride at the moment where we were riding through Lancashire, The Yorkshire Dales and Cumbria again. They just take a long time to piece together and to tell the story, but hopefully it will be done in the very near future. Think we are heading out to the Dales tomorrow somewhere too ?
You’ve all heard of “Little and large”, “Cannon and ball”, “Laurel and Hardy” and of course the “The Two Ronnie”, well we’ve now got “DAZ & MIKE”…….. Get ready for Stardom lads, your on the way up. 😂 So good to see you two back together in the saddle. But you know what would be absolutely fantastic, for both you and Mike to do a ride on a Tandem. 😮 But who’s going to be the back end 😂😂 And also Daz……the Revenio 3 I bought, I love it. Take care lads, you cheer us all up no end 👍
The Laurel and Hardy of cycling lol. That made me chuckle. I would only put Mike on the front of a tandem if he knew where we were going.... And yes the Revenio might not be an all out racing thoroughbred but once you get the position dialled in, it is a ride all day bike and with a few upgrades at the right price off Ebay, you can get the weight of em right down.
Great vid again Daz still around my regular routes,didn't know that cafe was there defo bobbing in tomz haha Mike saying when I got on't front it went to 30 😂😂😂😂 🚴💨💨💨💨
Great ride and content as always lads. The speeding HGV at 4:11 kinda rolled up fast on you like that Spielberg movie Duel. Made my heart stop a little. Stay safe out there.
Yer , the wagon appeared out of nowhere and it was a relatively quiet road. I did check before hand to look around and we don't normally ride 2 a breast either.
haha funny! it is super nice that bit of tarmac between Keasden turn off and Bentham, I always look forward to it! proper saddo me! 🤣 interesting factoid for ya Daz....locals pronounce Quernmore as 'Kermer'. . .
Totally agree with the tarmac buddy and thanks for the heads up with how you pronounce the Q word. It is so difficult to get it right. Thanks for the comments as always ...
Hi Dazzer: Just got back from a family trip to our old stomping grounds, and took the opportunity to have a quick peak to see if the no-go sign is still there on the ! . I was hoping it would have perhaps disappeared by now. But alas its still there and what's more -theres two more! so, three signs there now. I didn't check the other place, but presumably the same. So it's still mission-impossible there at the moment. (speaking of Mission Impossible - I''ll "self district" this update after you've received it 🙂)
Thanks for the update buddy, I really miss that place. The signs may be up but people are still panning there for sure. Alba are now draining the adits and preparing to look at the vein structures they assayed a few years ago.
Nice to see yas in my village Silverdale. Had an ebike miself past 3 weeks. But just bought a gravel bike. Not arrived yet. Done a few of these routes miself on mi other channel, *Grandad Rambles* looking forward to mi new bike coming and not having to rely on a battery haha.
There's some great cycling lanes around them parts for sure and I dare say you could link up many trails and bridal paths in conjunction with the cycle routes if you have a gravel bike. I'm due a trip out that way soon as I've not been for a while 👍
@LancashireLarks I'm just looking for a nice campsite, nothing fancy. I've also recently acquired a cracking little camper caravan which is perfect for mini or extended breaks.
I was chatting with Mike about it on Sunday's ride. There was a sportive taking place from Lancaster into the Lakes and they charge £45 . Me n Mike would do it for free.
Love it when you are stroking the Tarmac,the banter between you and Mike is top drawer and the ride looked great😁👍
Hi Peter, Just for the record, I don't usually stroke the tarmac but it was some of the best I've seen in a while 😁.
We are so fortunate to have all if these fantastic cycling lanes on our doorstep too 👍
Brilliant video u legend hope family are all well 😊😊
You too diggersden, I hope yo are well and the weather is settling down for you now.
Great roads and a pleasure to watch. Get more Mike on the mic, he's a proper laugh. Thanks Lads.
Thanks Andrew, I am trying to get Mike involved more but he's now talking about wanting a cut of the prophets. We do not claim a penny from the videos either. We can't even get a sponsor for the Black puddings ...
Another cracking ride lads! 👍I’m with Mike …… Jam then the cream 💯🚴♂️
Ha ha thanks Kevin.
The debate continues
Brilliant, nice to see the return of Mike and in full feckle.
Hello Martin and thank you for the comments, I know Mike really appreciates the mentions so please keep them coming buddy
Great video! Loving the banter as per usual. Gives me motivation to get our for a ride. 😊
That is great to hear, I am passionate about my cycling and for other people such as yourself, to say this means a lot, so thank you ...
Cracking ride daz nice to see Mike out again..
Thanks 👍 Michael, we have been out on quite few rides now buddy so stay tuned

Very nice to see Mike out with you again Daz. Great riding again and some epic downhill sections! Nice one and stay safe out there. 👍😊

Thank you for the ongoing support my friend. That descent down the Trough is really good and there is gold in the river at the bottom too
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Lol - you read my mind : I was wondering! - as we always do whenever we see a river that looks like that 😄
Tiny specs at Dunsop Bridge but slightly bigger on the Lune in places
Great video as usual Daz. Looked an awesome ride that and good to see Mile back. I like a ride to Arnside it's an hour and half loop from home
It is a place that I have passed by many times now over the last year or so and am slowly getting to know how all the little places link up. You have some cracking countryside on your doorstep by the sounds of it then pal.
Great video Daz, great to see mike out with you again cheers me up.
Thanks Matt, we just need the weather to sort it's self out now and I think we will all be a lot happier.

Thank you Hilland Beck for the heads up about the Silverdale Cafe, I think I have seen it on my travels and it is a place we will no doubt be cycling to in the future
Marvellous video and great too see you an Mike back Daz smashing it..well done nice ride, and look forward to another epic ride...

Brilliant mate, nice to see you both again
Cheers LDC, I am really liking this part of the world, especially the flat lands leading over towards Cark
@@MrDazP1adv3ntures Mike didn’t look to happy there wasn’t any black pudding or cream though 😂
It can make or break the ride pal.

Hi Chris, it's an On- going debate about the scones, the funny thing with this ride was that they didn't do Black puddings or scones with cream 🤔

Hi Daz
Anymore videos coming up??
Look forward to watching them on a Sunday evening. 😊

Mike rarely gets on the front Vinnie, I have to tell him
"Hey Mike get on the front"
It wasn't a bad little cafe either to be honest pal 👍
That's a good one Daz, the video never lies. Some interesting facts especially about the Minellium Bridge🤣👍
I know Mike, it looks like you are on the front doing 30mph all over the north west on these videos pal
Great ride and content as always lads. The speeding HGV at 4:11 kinda rolled up fast on you like that Spielberg movie Duel. Made my heart stop a little. Stay safe out there.

1.25 he is definately back :-)
He's actually a bit camera shy to begin with but once you get Mike fired up, he's off !
Mike :"Lick it Daz."
Daz : "I'm not licking it." 😅
I don't know where that came from Vinnie, I should have said that to him when he was eating his ice cream .
Think you should start your own sportif soon, Daz.

There was a sportive taking place from Lancaster into the Lakes and they charge £45 .
Me n Mike would do it for free.
