Touring the Lake District on a Harley Davidson - Grasmere, Windermere and Beatrix Potter (Pt4)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 окт 2024
- Had a fantastic time touring The Lake District taking the Advanced Rider training with RIDE MT. Gordon took us on some incredible roads with some of the best views in the UK. Visited the beautiful village of Grasmere and had a wonderful stay at Capernwray House. 5 weeks after the Pan America fall, we were fortunate enough to be able to book onto an Advanced Rider Training course run by Ride MT in the beautiful Lake District. Invaluable advice and guidance and possibly some of the best roads we have ever ridden. What an incredible experience!

Hi Guys, last part of the tour to the Lake District. Big thanks to both Gordon and Roy of Ride MT, we learnt loads and had 2 days of incredible riding. Sorry for the delay with the video, sadly we lost footage and audio so we did our best in trying to put the video together. Hope you enjoy it. Please make sure you subscribe and leave a THUMBS UP if you enjoyed it!
🤘
Hi guys 🙌 always enjoyable 👌 many thanks for your time and trouble to make such great content 🙏 long may it continue 🤩👍
Wow ... what a cute, sweet and romantic Area you ride this Day ...
It was realy a Joy to see you two there ...
Thanks for showing this 😊
Your Arne
Lake District is beautiful
Thanks for watching
I really enjoyed this little series. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching
Beautiful views and classic Bunny King Hogs banter ......lol
Glad you enjoyed it ❤️
Once again I’m amazed by the scenery and the fact that there’s no commercial reason for your video. Your not trying to sell anything or promote anyone, just pure honest enjoyment. Need more people like the two of you. Thank you!
thanks Tim, we are not serious bloggers, we are just doing it for the fun 😊
I've tucked my Harley away for the winter, watching your videos, I want get back out on her, even though I do have a winter bike.
Then my heart with pleasure fills and dances with the Chardonnay. 😂 Great video. 👍
Thanks Stephen, Glad you enjoyed it. Good choice of wine
Vagina Flaps and Gingerbread in the same video!! YOU GUYS CRACK ME UP!!!
Wonderful scenery. It always rains when I go there! Good fun video as always. Keep up the good work.
It was so Hot!! Probably the only few days in the year though HAHA. We were lucky though I guess, everything looks better in the sunshine and filming in the rain is pants. Maybe next time
Great video thanks for sharing! You guys are awesome 👏
Thank you so much 🤗 Ride safe
It was almost like I was there too 👍😀
yay! welcome any time 😊
Another interesting video. Either the scenery or the way you two yack back n forth always makes for a fun video, oh yea Brian’s awesome editing too!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Always entertaining and loving the bits that “definitely won’t make it in the vlog.” Congratulations on the 10k guys, looking forward to the next adventure
Oh Simon, If only you knew how much of the "definitely won't make the vlog" was actually cut out, was definitely not suitable for YT! A kind of discussion only a Husband and wife tend to have LOL Thanks for watching
@@BunnyKingHogs 😂 considering the Mrs does not ride and I’m always out with my old man mates when riding, I can’t imagine!!
Two thumbs up! Beautiful scenery, conversations, content, and editing. I totally enjoy your video’s
Much appreciated! Thanks Thomas, hope you have a good weekend.
I absolutely love the history lessons during your rides.
thank you! lots more history to come! ❤️
So nice to watch this looking at all the green fields before I bundle up to go out and shovel all the snow off of my driveway.
Oh dear! Where is it snowing? Everything is going brown now, no leaves on the trees, and it is so rainy
Such awesome weather you appear to have had for your trip!
It was! We were very lucky, saw the forecast and decided to take the opportunity. Fantastic
I really love the history lesson when you ride I could listen to it all day thanks ride safe
awesome, thank you! I do love history…more to come! ❤️
Wow again so beautiful ! Your confidence grows your skills grow ! So you awed me with the countryside and had me laughing with the banter ! Thank You !
Thank you so much! We had an amazing time, roads were incredible and definitely learnt some new skills
Beautiful day ☀️ Yeah Brian mini app bars with a slight pullback would probably be nicer / more comfy to ride. Great riding through the twisties & countryside. Grasmere Gingerbread shop looks great & Heidi's cafe. Amazing Beatrix Potter made $20Ml from her books. Incredible. Yeah would have been tough living in the old days without the mod cons. Ha ha the b/t chat is funny lol. Well done on the advanced riding course 🏍️👍. Nice spot at the end with a great view.
Agreed! It was a beautiful area to ride. Thanks Michael
Enjoyed the mini series, great content and fantastic place to ride. Will be looking to Gordon next time we in the area.
Glad you enjoyed it
much luv u 2!
🤘😘
*& gordon as well!
😋
We shall let him know!
@@BunnyKingHogs
🤘😀
Love your videos love the history also very well done guys enjoy ride safe
YEY My favourite RUclips couple 💑 🤘🤘 Oh I see why you didn't do hardknott pass, it was because of the gingerbread 😄 😅
Next time! HAHA. Gingerbread was way better I am sure, thanks for watching!
Oh guys you made me laugh!! Love all the history that's in Carolines head and then it goes into lady bits and flaps 🤣 Another beautiful ride, thanks for taking us along!! Great editing Brian!!
ha! thanks bonnie 😊 to be fair, I am always shocked to see what makes the cut 🤪
Another awesome video. Love them.
Glad you like them! ❤️
Such a lovely natural presentation style, please don't either of you ever change. Love the content and the stunning scenery. Looking forward to viewing your back catalogue and future adventures. Stay safe over the winter - Cheers.
Thank you so much David! What a lovely comment. Hope to get some riding in over the winter, should be fun but cold. Stay safe and thanks for watching
A great end to a really good mini series, I love you two.
Well, I love Carolyne and I'm fairly fond of Brian.
😂
😂
haha
Im glad I found your channel, great ride
Welcome aboard! Thanks for watching
More beautiful countryside ❤️ I love your rides. You'll notice you don't see quite as much because you watch the road, but it keeps you safe. I ride my scooter around the city and people tell me they see me but I never see them. I tell them it's because they aren't somewhere that matters to keeping me from getting killed by cars and buses. You'll miss the little stuff but you'll be a better rider.
I hope you've got more adventures before the weather turns on you. Looking forward to the next video ❤️
Hi MK, I completely agree, it was more to do with the speed, we were riding much quicker than normal. But I definitely know that the skills we learnt are there to help keep us safe. Thanks for watching
You guys are really funny! Great ride once again
Glad you like them!
I love your videos the best way to get in touch with your bike is to find a flat straight long road and just put it to the floor and let her show you what hes can do.Had my 18 roadking up to 115. You can trust her .
I wait all week for your videos to come out… they always make me smile and giggle. Carolyne can teach me history any day… every day!
I also always wonder what didn’t make it into the video???? LOL does it start at Camel Toe or does the conversation go further… only Brian knows for sure!
haha….Brian has to edit a lot! poor guy
@@BunnyKingHogs
You are both awesome doll… keep it coming.
Like everyone below loved the mini series. Perfect people for the perfect ride . You two do an amazing job with making these Vlogs . Brian is great at editing and Carolyne is great with the commentary . Love the history lessons and the Banter. Get use to that counter steer it helps a lot, especially going faster through the turns. Keep it up we love and enjoy your Vlogs. Rubber down!!
Glad you like them! We do our best, some times I am amazed at what Brian can put together from all the rubbish we film HAHA
Always great video, scenery and history. Soon you'll be so comfortable and convenient to do more then you'll ever know. Take care and always enjoy your surroundings.
Thanks 👍 James! I am hoping to do more History vlogs, have done a few but Brian takes forever to edit. Thanks for watching
@@BunnyKingHogs understandable, but Brian is correct about trying different bikes. Once you're more comfortable you gotta try more. I know you can achieve anything.
Fun to watch as usual one of the best vlogs I watch
Thanks Christopher, glad you enjoyed the video.
Thanks for the ride along and video
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching Jim
Splendid (:
Thanks. Whats planned for the weekend?
@@BunnyKingHogs Snow lots of snow(:
Tea after winter walks is on the agenda (:
Really love your videos…the riding looked beautiful
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching Mike. We had a great time
you guys were really lucky with the weather. great vlogs ..
we really were!
Great mini-series. Really enjoyed the scenery and y'alls banter.
Glad you enjoyed it Correy, we had a great time. Thanks for watching and hope you have a good weekend!
That was a wonderful ride and that was me at first I didn't trust myself and that's all it was and then I took a riding class now I think I'm a little bit but and have a wonderful holiday
The more you ride the more confident you become. After the Europe tour we were very comfortable on the bike. With lack of riding over winter and the bike breaking it took some time getting back into it.
I'm sure you learned a lot but I think Gordon learned a few things as well ( Barbie aside) the Lakes are stunning in good weather and being on motorbikes even more so. Great vlog thanks Steve
Gordon got to practice his eye roll ! HAHA
Great video as always guys! Thanks for the hard work and efforts you two both put in to entertain us!
all Brian! I just ride 🤪
Those beach bars are very cool and really comfortable... but.... the bike would handle MUCH better with narrower, higher bars. I've played with the mini-apes on my Heritage. Moving them from a very low position, to a much more vertical position. It feels like a totally different bike. It almost feels "lighter". It takes far less effort to navigate turns. I think I remember Carolyn riding Brian's King, and commenting on how easy it was to make turns... His high and narrow bars are what makes that happen. As always... LOVE seeing you guys again! And Carolyn is getting saucier and saucier.... :D
yes, you are right…but would she be the same without those bars?
Lovely footage thank you
And Happy New Year Guys
Thanks , best wishes for 2022!
Well glad to see you both are doing well really enjoy watching the videos as well as the history that you sometimes add in. Enjoy the back and forth between you and Brian it shows how much fun you both have together thanks for sharing and just remember its all about having fun and the adventures the Motorcycle brings to us Stay Safe
Hi Cathy, hope you are well. We had a great time riding around the lake district whilst learning new skills. Sadly the riding season finished too quickly and still struggling with the hand (apparently I tore tendons) We have some tours planned in 2022 all booked which is super exciting. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend!
Die schönste Frau die ich seit langem gesehen habe ❤wunderschöne Augen 🥰🤗ich fahre auch Harley, aber anders 😂😘ihr seit klasse 🥰
You need a mesh jacket. Good luck testing new bikes that always fun. Maybe you will have to try a Indain motorcycle 😎👍🍻
That would be cool! We tried to test an indian scout but really difficult to find one. Also about 2 hour drive to get to a dealer.
@@BunnyKingHogs 2 hours there and 4 hours round trip...so iron butts you guys are not. Tell us what is the farthest you've travelled in a day and how long did it take
Englands green an pleasant land and your banter. Great way to start a Friday. First time I scraped the pegs on my speedmaster I wonder what i done. However i do it more often now as my confidence has grown. You might want to try one. however they do have beach bars as well. Good hunting.
agreed! it’s so weird. I’ve been scraping for a couple of years now….hard not to on our roads 😊
I had a Fat Boy Lo for a couple of years. The floor boards were in marked when I bought it with 2400 miles on it. Both were ground down a bit when I sold it. Definitely had it at max lean angle for that model.
Excellent as always 👍but where have you been? Looks like it's done you both a lot of good 👍❤️x
Hi Rob, been a tough video to make as sadly we lost some footage and audio. Also riding has been difficult, still struggling with the hand and its cold and wet
Loved the ride!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Later m8 engined bikes well worth a go on.
More power = more confidence too, if used wisely.
Enjoyed the watch, take care 🍻🥂
Thanks for the tip Kevin (you from the FB UK Group??) Tried the M8 with a Road glide (Next video). Thanks for watching
@@BunnyKingHogs yes that's me lol 🤪
Some of my older hd's had a lot less power,braking, etc.
That just means that a lot of the time, you've got to really consider that overtake move carefully.
I find with my 114 have loads of power throughout for modern traffic.
Brakes and handling are terrific as well, which all make that confidence cake work so well.
Interesting to see what you make to the road glide.🤔
Keep up the great work guys, & stay safe.🏍🇬🇧
Take out a Rks afterwards, same bike without the music/nav/fairing and weight.
I found after my last streetglide, I used neither music/nav as often as thought I would.
As ya know with the king, that touring screen can be on or off in 2 mins.🤙
Watching the road as you ride I can see both of you paying more attention to lane position. I think if you “concentrate” on that for a bit it will become second nature and then you can go back to being more free in your looking about. I just love the area you guys get to ride.
you are right, just getting used to the new “rules” ❤️
Carolyne, you should come ride in Eastern Washington state in the middle of Summer, with temperatures above 110F (43C) common you will definitely learn measures to deal with heat. You'll also find some historic sites from the paleolithic to modern times. Brian will have spectacular vistas such as the Grand Coulee, Dry Falls, The Columbia River Gorge, and the Columbia River Basalts, as well as several active volcanoes in the Cascade Mountains. All with the Pacific Ocean only a few hours away.
we would need cooler gear but that sounds incredible!
@@BunnyKingHogs Once you get into the mountains the temperatures drop, and on the west side of the mountains it is usually not much above 30C and much greener and more heavily forested. Simply amazing scenery.
Love your vids, our UK trip got cancelled by Covid in 2020, and now uk is definitely off the books because of brexit, so this way we still can enjoy the many beautifull national parks, while riding to the north of Italy , Scandinavia or France.
And I rarely ride in the middle of the lane, because of line of sight, escape pads and the dirth/oil left by cars.
Why does Brexit stop you coming to the UK?
Shame!! Poor you having to ride around the absolutely stunning Mountains of Italy and France HAHA... I wish we could be back there! We have just booked a trip for August time in Switzerland though.
What a great video again, good bikes, great people, and a discussion about women's flaps, what could a man want more, LOL.
hahaha 😝
@@BunnyKingHogs Are you guy's thinking of putting your feet up for the winter, or are you riding through the bad weather ??
I also pushed into a funeral procession without realising - too late to do anything about it, rode for about 3 miles with them
Oh no, I was so sheepish LOL
Hi guys great vlog as always. As for your bike just make some small changes like different bars and seat. One of my old bosses told me if you drop the seat height you become part of the bike and not just a passenger. When you rode Brian's bike you looked comfortable and I think you said you like the bars so I think try mini ape and a lower seat it's cheaper than a new bike.
The Deluxe already has one of the lowest seat heights around. But I agree about the bars.
yeah, I do love my bars though….I love windy roads too
Great video again, you were so blessed with the weather. Good bikes to try would be the new sportster s or the sports glide if you want to try different Harleys
That's the plan! Been trying to get on the Sporster for a while now. Tried the sport glide (next video) :)
No no no.... !!!
Yeah, try other bikes for handlebar shapes and sizes but KEEP that Harley. Just change the bars when you've found the right ones.
If you change the bike the Bunny King Hogs channel will no longer be the same.
Look forward to more of your "flapping" around the lakes adventures.
Thanks, once again a wonderful video, just a shame Brian had to end it on such a sad note.
agreed! I would struggle to change my girl
Great video, Question Caroline? how come you know so match off the history facts? Btw I love the stories you tell.
Triumphs new Sport 660 has caught my eye recently, it would be lighter with an upright seating position that can have a lower seat if needed. It also can come with panniers and topbox for touring. :)
Thanks Cowboy, will google it now. We have tried testing triumphs but they have no demo bikes.
Yeah Triumph seem to do demo days once in a blue moon by invite only yet Harley will pretty much let you take any bike out
@@BunnyKingHogs The Triumph Trident is a great shout, could also look at a Ducati Scrambler which is also along the same lines. Have you tried contacting Triumph HQ? There marketing group do a lot with vloggers, especially females , and you guys do have quite an audience now. Plus you are right in their target demographic.
Love your vids, as always. However for us Yanks, could you maybe imbed some maps so that we have an idea what your talking about. Hopefully I will make it back across the pond to see some of this. Also you need a shipping address (not your home) I have a book I would like to send.
Hi Bob, sure will do for the future. Thanks for watching an appreciate the support!
She's right..... It's the bars that make that bike......"Fall Over".
Awesome scenery Caroline , thanks for that wee bit of history too. A Question though.... In your vids, I keep seeing this zig-zag pattern of the center-line on the roadway... what is that denoting??? ( I'm a Canuck ... so we won't see that sort of thing here ) .... Stay Safe . Ciao.
Hi Wes, thanks for watching. The ZigZig lines are usually found by pedestrian crossing, you can't park there or overtake, guess safety for the people
BMW R18 2022 Caroline should try!!
Hmmm, not sure about that one. The engine sticking out the side..although apparently it has reverse so... maybe
It's quite the butt pucker when you lean too far, the foot board reaches it's max fold and you go that little bit more (too much?) and tripod (the back wheel comes off the ground and pops over a foot or so). Quite the pucker, the first time. The type of pucker where you could pinch a train rail off (NOT that I recommend riding with a train rail up your keester. Bad for the seat and your posture.).
Always be kind when talking about flat places. One of the most wonderful of God's creations. People have such horrible words for something so amazing...
WHAT?!?! HAHA Apparently scrapping floorboards is a badge of honour for a rider
Noswaith dda, both that's good evening lol amazing video both this is better cause you aren't editing your voice out Brian it's great to hear both conversations even if they are about flaps hahaha you both had me crying again with you Bri cutting in the funeral line and thinking f#ck you then seeing the herse so funny, I love ginger bread and does that one taste better lol sorry Carolyne but beach bars have to be the worst handling bars out there sometimes wide is good but to wide and they can fight back awesome both. Oh yeah I have a motorbike now it's not a Harley yet it's a Yamaha but I'm on the road again yip yip. 🤘🤘🏴🏴🏴
the gingerbread was great! not fun waiting in line in leathers though! not in that heat!
What's next for the BKH team?
plenty planned, just need the weather
It depends on who I am riding with, If I am riding with my wife with her on her Harley, we tend to ride much slower. If I am riding with friends that I grew up with and grew up with sport bikes and dirt bikes I tend to scrape the bords on my street glide chasing them on their Ducati`s
yeah, boys focus is different. I like to see the world
You are never overweight (fat) just underheight.
One should always do what makes you happy, after swmbo approves obviously
haha! platform shoes?
@@BunnyKingHogs I don't think he needs them, or has the legs for stilettos
Maybe it’s been mentioned already
I think your so used to country roads anything more than 40 mph seems extreme. I’m sure there’s hiways over there take a trip on there and get it to 70-80 mph you’ll see that horse just wants to run free and is pretty nimble. Those bars at low speed have to be awkward. Just my thoughts.
highways/motorways are so straight and boring. Our country roads are actually 60mph so more fast cornering and gear changing action required but I do like pootling ❤️
I agree that the bars make your bike. Don’t see many Harleys with that style. Keep on riding and you will gain more confidence. Drop a gear, twist that throttle and it will take off. I gotta say I follow a lot of vloggers and your the first to talk about vaginas. 🤣 How much longer or shorter is your riding season? Stay safe
haha! nothing wrong with vagina talk, half of us have them… and almost all the other half love them 😋 We ride all year
@@BunnyKingHogs well as long as she does not talk cycles
I do love hearing the " bits" that are definitely not going into the vlog! Sort of "watch my lips" stuff from a poltician.....oops.
he adds too much!
Take an Indian for a test ride, easier to handle in corners and a better power range.
shall do!
Ride your bike but don’t override your bike it’s all practice I lean my bike almost completely sideways it’s a big heavy bike 800 lbs & I ride it like a sport bike.it’s all torque more so than horsepower you can override your bike’s
Capabilities however I don’t know how to say it I’ll just sum it up as you have to know your’s & the bike’s capabilities enjoy every video cause of the interaction between y’all
you are right, all a learning experience ❤️
