Lake District

[adeejaysdelight]

So day one is over. After a long day in the saddle riding the dales and moors of Yorkshire, I am ready for a big sleep before taking on the lakes tomorrow. I plan to hot most of the roads suggested and will deffo hot the wrynose pass and hardlnott pass.

However, I have a question to the locals. What the hell is that white silt all over the roads? Its on my tyres lime chalk and its pretty slippy in the bends? Is it some kind of residue from an anti-iceing agent or something?

Anyway, recommendations so far have been ace.

Thanks
