    Class content as usual! Any chance you could link the Komoot route Dan? Heading to the lakes in a few weeks and this looks ideal 👌

    I've lived in the lake District my whole life and am an avid mountain bike rider but have always been to lazy/scared to try my hand at cycling but after watching some of your videos, I opted to do some gravel riding at whinlatter rather than mountain biking and after one ride/push Already pumped and feeling a new sense of motivation. Thanks alot Dan for getting me out doing something fun in a place I've taken for granted 🤟

    Hello from inspiring videos. Congratulations. What camera equipment do you use?

      @Daaaanjj  3 месяца назад +1

      Thanks. Use a range of things but my main cameras are:
      - Sony A7iii
      - DJI Action 2
      - Insta360 x3

    Is there a type of content that gets products interested in you or is it purely a numbers game?

    • @Daaaanjj
      @Daaaanjj  3 месяца назад

      probably a mix of both; brands want the numbers for awareness but the content also needs to fit any products into it without it being shoe-horned. I don't get any p'ships through this RUclips though cos the numbers are fairly small, it's all through my Instagram and TikTok

    Love this, what’s the name of the hotel you stayed at wouldn’t mind some £60 a night action myself.
    Also big up my mate Tom aka the watt machine of Wincham

    • @Daaaanjj
      @Daaaanjj  3 месяца назад +1

      Thanks mate. Hotel was Windermere Manor Hotel... ideal location really too for Windermere. Also sometimes stay at another old gem called 'Grange Hotel' but that's about 30 mins drive out from Windermere as it's quite South but also has a little indoor pool.
