 .Shame it wasn't a little more dry for you, bet you have to be on the ball when it's wet on those roads.

I used to live 5 miles up the road. These roads are where I started driving and they were great fun 20 years ago. Driving up through the lakes on clear roads in a sports car is one of motorings great experiences. This post brings back some good memories and reminds me I must go back soon.

 Hitting Kirkstone Pass with no traffic is one of those great motoring moments. We had an awesome run even in the wet. |
