Lorton Valley, view towards Crummock Water and Buttermere
First ride this year on my Z250SL Ninja that lives in Keswick. Just a quick triangle ride out via Embleton to Lorton and back via Whinlatter Pass (318 m.) this afternoon after my journey up from London. Great to chuck the little bike around on dry roads again, it’s so easy to make it sing in the afternoon sunshine. But not the day for a long ride with the weather closing in up the valley on the fells.
