This is pretty much where Monty's shot was taken though I haven't cropped the dark car out...
absolutely!Honister Pass!
Just looking for exact location...
I haven't done the big Lake District climbs yet. All being well, I'll treat myself to a cycling holiday in the Lakes in spring 2022, once I have my state pension and (hopefully) Covid-19 is no longer an issue.absolutely!
It's about halfway up... not far from where i did a swift U turn during a failed attempt to ride over it. I was much happier going downhill
Ha ha - I told my pal that someone would make that deduction!Had a hunch it would be close to your previous one and it looked Welsh. Didn't take me too long...

Obviously I knew where to start looking from your ICam Rides! Your picture was quite cunningly framed, chopping out the rightmost propellers* but still making it look as though you've included to full installation. It's the markings in the road that make it certain I've found the right place.
* A word it seems I've been spelling wrongly all my life.
I've ridden that long slope down to Langford many times and I still didn't recognise it from either picture.Here it is:

No, it isn't Bristol.Great pic. Based on a bit of googling, Hayes Way, Bristol?
On the basis that the load says 'Concorde', and the main UK construction site was at Filton, Bristol, yet you say this is not Bristol, then it is probably between Bristol and a port. Avonmouth? Southampton?No, it isn't Bristol.
I have a first series 1:50000 O/S map which shows a single carriageway unclassified road where the current Hayes Way is. In 1968 the M4 stopped just north of Bath, and the M5 was a spur a couple of miles in length heading south from Almondsbury.
But the road in the picture has remained stable since that time.
That is an extremely sound deduction! Bear in mind that the road network wasn't what it is now.On the basis that the load says 'Concorde', and the main UK construction site was at Filton, Bristol, yet you say this is not Bristol, then it is probably between Bristol and a port.
