I've been meaning to post this for a while but haven't got round to it. I had a set of Continental Cross Contacts on my FL2 but I never felt really happy with them. I decided to treat myself to a set of Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season.

On a weekend away up in the Dales I got to test them out and was really impressed, here's a video of me crossing over the top of one of the hills and dropping down near to Aysgarth.

really enjoyed that, its a road I have travelled many times, spend most of my days if possible visiting the dales, but I would say you are 5 miles off Aysgarth, as you ended up in Askrigg, perhaps got the name mixed up nevertheless. beautiful to watch, a great film

what sort of camera do you use?

You are spot on, we stayed at the Aysgart Falls Hotel, I couldn't remember where we came out near so used a bit of poetic licence .

I tried a different route over the top the following day but the snow got that deep the front bumper started to resemble a snow plough so I had to turn around.

It's a dashcam that's nice and discrete, I think there are better one's but I wanted something that could be left in situ that's hard to notice so I don't have to remove it.

I had the Pirelli Scorpion Verde on my previous car, an Audi allroad. I was impressed at their ability to get gri in snow and ice, but their braking performance was poor.
