What happens when you forget to pack clothes, your bike is still in bits in the garage, and you decide to tackle one of the most iconic roads in the UK on a press bike? You get one unforgettable adventure—and that’s exactly what happened on this trip through the Lake District on the Triumph Scrambler 400X.
Despite the rain, the fog, and some unexpected bike behaviour, the Scrambler managed to handle the roads—mostly. This video covers everything from hilarious packing failures to first impressions of Triumph’s latest scrambler. From twisty lanes and steep inclines to friendly locals and terrible tires, it’s a raw and honest look at what it’s really like to ride this bike in British weather.
The Lake District holds a special place in my heart, and returning here to ride in my home turf reminded me exactly why we ride: for freedom, connection, and the occasional complete chaos. Come for the views, stay for the breakdowns, and ride along as I push through soaked boots and missing sat-navs to find coffee, clarity, and the start of a proper review.
