Northern Exile Aug 2024 2:44pm, 12 Aug 2024 10,437 posts	Quote Pin Northern Exile You got that without any online look up? Well done. I asked because I rode past it yesterday and on my way to Dent and completely failed to identify it, despite having ran over it several times. I think it's one of those that has a distinct profile but not one you see when approaching it on foot, at least that's my theory. Would anyone else who has ran over it (Fellsman etc) have got it from this picture? Maybe it's just me
