Sunny Astley GUNCHESTER Ingerland
Did this little run today. Any lads from Yorky or Lanky will know these roads, but everytime I go its diferrent cause their are just so many.
I head up from our place through outskirts of Bolton through Belmont, Darwin, up past Rocket Centre on to Clitheroe then head out to Settle. A59-A65. At Settle get on the b6479. Or go further and at petrol station near Ingleton get on b6255 , think its called Laundry lane and after a bit it opens up. I love that little stretch of road and would describe it as best ridden with your nads against the tank. You can even get airborn a couple of times. Both join up and end up at Hawes. Either go in to Hawes for a brew or do a sharp left and head for Sedbergh, a684. Crack on to the a683 which takes you to Devils Bridge at Kirkby Longsdale. After a burger and a mooch get back on to a683 to Hornby ,do a left on to b6480 and that will take you back towards a65 and Settle and Clitheroe.
Not a long ride but pretty demanding in places and if theirs not much traffic its ideal for a Tuono. I left at 9-30 and got back in at 3 buggered after about 190 miles.
[if i got the road numbers wrong sorry but you don't really need to know where your going just follow someone else for a bit if you get lost]
Anyhoo heres some pics.
