In South Africa, our "scary bits" aren't macademised. They're gravel and mud ruts and severe inclines and descents

Superbly done! Hardknott Pass certainly is a challenging stretch of road...

Fair play to you..... good clutch control. There's been more than few that've failed a restart on the bits that you.did. I was over there last week in torrential rain. A bit ' squeaky bum time'

This was Sunday 4th December 2016 between 13.00 and 13.30. Learned a lesson here, it was scary doing it west to east with the low sun. it really obscured your vision. Not only that there was ice at the top of the pass. We were all relieved to make it safely over to the Roman fort to re-group.

Hi ROC, could you tell me more about your charity please ? I can,t see any problems with you using some of my footage, I can give you descriptions of parts of the ride such as icy patches, steepness of hairpin bends and things like when my rear wheel is locking up on the steepest descents. you can email me on thewyresparky@gmail.com
