Tour of Skiddaw and Blencathra via Caldbeck and Uldale Fells on my Ninja Z250SL. Disappointing Cumbria weather although my visor stayed dry despite the low cloud. Quiet roads these, they’re off the top of the maps the tourists use and there’s only one lake, Over Water. Big rolling moors as the Skiddaw Massif gives way to the Solway Firth. Plenty of sheep with lambs and I also spotted a deer. One of the routes the CRF300 Rally was really good for (but it didn’t do so many others).
