As the Fazer is awaiting some work - booked in for Thursday - I've been hammering the Striple for the last couple of weeks; got the Triumph comfort seat fitted now too, so can hammer it for longerĀ :b
Today, did another ride around the Lake District. Then poked my nose down a little lane I haven't explored before on the eastern side of Ullswater. Half way along the lake, the lane suddenly climbs in steep switchbacks:

Then parked up:

and noticed a path heading up the hillside to the top of the fell:

Looks inviting, not too far to the top, so headed up for the views:

Ullswater from the top:

Then hammered it home again. The Fazer is of course faster, but it's this little hooligan bike that's gonna lose me my licenseĀ :evil
