First time going up to Hartside cafe, last time I went up that way it was snowing so I turned back near Alston. It was deserted at the top, apart from two IAM-looking types.



The Hartside pass was not much fun, the road surface was jet black, fresh tarmac and it looked like it was melting in the heat, in between that, the pheasants, rabbits and sheep in the road I didn't feel all that confident. That said, the road flows better on the way back towards Hexham, so the return leg was quicker and smoother.



I stopped off at Langley castle for a few photos





Then it was off home. While it's not my favourite road in the area, but it's pretty tight and often you can't get a good look at the road ahead, lots of blind corners, so it's not exactly a flat out stretch, but the scenery makes it worth a ride. I can't comment on the quality of the cakes from the Hartside Top cafe, which I'd heard were nice, as the place was shut.

No pics??

Unfortunately not, was on my commute. Just looked like any other road going quad (st) but it had a big old engine in it and took off like a scalded cat until it got to a corner.

Trick is to do it in summer when the mud is dry

Begs the question: Do you always take it up the dirt track?

Thanks Liam. I took it with my phone I did edit it a bit, but only colours and contrast.

Now now, I thought it was normally Liam that you groomed?

Sadly no lottery win this week so far. So that means more work for a while before we can do this again. That trip was mega fun.

The Maggot at the seaside. I've been riding it every day, and today was the first day I didn't discover a new problem. That's what you get using a 33 year old for your daily ride.
