Seldom Seen is indeed cheeky, and the farmer is known for dishing out bollockings to bikers. Good riding though ๐Ÿ˜‰
Alternative BW descents from Helvellyn are many, including Sticks pass West (steeper and techier but fast), Grizedale Tarn to Patterdale (really good rockiness), Birkside to Thirlmere (huge descent on steep rockiness, mainly pitched path).
