Summer has finally arrived, so to celebrate the slightly warmer weather I decided to take a day out on the Bonneville T120 to the Lake District. I'm always glad to have made the 2 hour journey up north. Approaching the Lakes from the south, you see the mountains rise up in the distance, beckoning you to come and see, to ride and take moments to stop and just gawp at the magnificent landscape.
The Lake District and motorcycles are a match made in heaven; and I can't think of any other motorbike I'd rather be riding the twisty, narrow country lanes on than my Bonneville T120.

Because of the bad situation in Libya, the future is not clear. I reached the age of fifty and lost my dream and ambition. I couldn't fulfill my dream of buying a motorbike and enjoying a trip around the world. Because of that, I got depressed. I feel psychological relief when I watch your channel, but my dream still haunts me every time. Thank you for everything you do for us.

You must keep your dream Khaled! Many people still rides bikes into their very old age, so you have time yet to make that world trip happen!

I feel for you. I now don’t listen to much in the way of news as it’s so grim. I too find that watching independent minded people going out and exploring shows that there are far more good people in the world than bad. In terms of your dream, as the saying goes, every journey starts with a first step. Maybe you can do a short adventure first.

Burying a bike saved my marriage. I had to give up riffing because of a back injury. Over the years I got depressed and my wife and I were going to divorce. I told her I was buying a bike as I needed in my life and I wanted her to come on tours and days out. Long story short over 6 years later we have toured Spain and the Pyrenees and Normandy and marriage saved. Never say never.

I believe you rode pass Crummock Water, Buttermere and along the Honnister Pass to Borrowdake. I moved to the Lake District in December from Hampshire, we both chucked in our jobs and made the move, at 61 i needed to do something before the Grim Reaper comes along. Give the North Pennines a go. I live by the A686 which takes upu up to Hartside Pass, then just explore the fanastic roads, even on a sunny day the mist will roll in and you can see bugger all, at times ive had to turn around. Cheers great vid as always 👍

Having driven in the Lake District with rental cars that were too large for the roads and almost scraped off of the side by an irate bus driver (apparently he did have the right of way) I can only dream of riding my T120 on those roads. On a different note, did I detect the stock front fender and fender extender on your bike? Thumbs up to a Bonneville in the Lake District!
@ClassicRides
@ClassicRides Год назад
You have the eyes of a hawk Mike 😁. I put the stock mudguards back on as the other ones looked good, but were spectacularly rubbish at keeping muck off the bike.

beautiful scenery - love it! next week i start a journey to großglockner hochalpenstraße (its a marvelous street in the austrian alps) and then we hit the road for about a week or two in austria or north italy - it belongs to the weather. i bought my bonnie öhlins rear suspension, because with full luggage and two persons the stock suspension did´nt feel save in long bumpy curves. that was a really good investment - enjoy it a lot. maybe i put one or two pictures on instagram. ;-). best regards from vienna!

@@ClassicRides Yes, the move with subscription model sucks big time. I still use my oldest packtalk but I was looking around for something new for my friend.

@@UncleLongbeard I wouldn't say the Intercom unit is the best quality, when I've used it for talking to a pillion the audio gets a bit ropy or just cuts out often. For using it to just listen to sat-nav directions it's fine, but if I were regularly using it to talk to people I'd probably get something else.
