It's been driving me up the bloody wall.
I know the Lakes and it's trails very well but for the life of me I can't work where this is taken from. I know it's Ambleside but at best I'm guessing the water in the distance is either Grasmere or Rydal but I can't figure out the features to work our what they on top of

Wansfell - the far lake is Esthwaite I think
Looks like Windermere lake from Nab Scar or Heron Pike to me.
That's Loughrigg Fell between the riders and lake
Scratch that - it's on Low pike - scandale fell, I'll bet my errr, loose change on it
You sound pretty sure but I can't line that view with the valley, tree covered side and water with anything from Low Fell.
10 Points to AlexSimon !
Definitely Nab Scar/Herons Pike looking over Loughrigg & Windermere, just managed to recreate it on Google Earth.
Thank **** for that, might do some work now...thestabiliser, how much loose change do you have ? 😀
😆
86p

was getting closer..........
It's take from Nab Scar http://streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=335925&Y=506885&A=Y&Z=120 (Heron Pike would have a foreground of the intervening ridge)
Ha! Screw you guys!
86p for pappa, ohhhh yeah!
erm - I said Nab Scar 😉
You can drop it in the hat of a busker of your choosing
Sorry, what I meant was that of your two potential sites it couldn't have been Heron Pike. Look at some of the later shots on this page http://www.wainwrightroutes.co.uk/heronpike_r1.htm
I didn't say the summit 😉 (cough trying to wriggle out of it).
I've never been up any of these - I was just using the original image and an OS map and looking in line with the top of Windermere (I had prior knowledge that they'd ridden from Ambleside, so guessed it was Windermere). Don't actually recognise any of it!
I've a slight advantage - I'm from the area and done a lot of fell walking there so a lot of views are imprinted on my mind 😛
Looks like a classic Lake District mountain 'biking' scene, everyone carrying their bikes instead of riding them. 😕
