It seemed like a good idea at the time, the enjoyment of riding a motorcycle through the English Lake District with a swim in one of its most beautiful ‘Meres’, that of Butter’mere’. The water here is clear, and only surpassed by the more remote and dramatic Wast Water, although Crummock Water vies with Buttermere for number two slot.

As locals will know there is only one lake in the Lake District, that being Bassenthwaite, all the others are either meres or waters, for those wishing for more detailed explanation you can find it here:

Anyway, I digress. That great idea of mine didn’t seem so great as the heated grips and extended hand guards on the bike struggled to prevent my hands from feeling the cold at 2c so I was grateful to warm them up with a flask of coffee as I arrived at my stony beach location and hour’s ride from Carlisle.

That’s the end of this test, just a trial to see how the embeds work etc

This photo is actually Gras’mere’ a few days later but I’ve just added it as another test
