nickb Posted April 5, 2011 Report Posted April 5, 2011 GT Lenny had a cracking idea of getting out and about to avoid the Royal Wedding, to try and help I have put together a possible route starting in Ashbourne at noon and heading via the lanes to the Cat & Fiddle Inn and then around the peak district trying to use a mix of roads to suit everyone, the round trip is 70 miles (seems a long way when I normally only do 1/4 mile at a time ) Please add your name to the list below: 1 - NickB 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 -

Trevmk3 Posted April 7, 2011 Report Posted April 7, 2011 Nice one Nick, ive been a little pre-occupied with work and other things at the moment, looks a good enough route with some cracking lanes and sights, i will have to see what my plans are for the day and may try and come out on it but in the daily or on the back of my mates bike and get some pics

blower Posted April 13, 2011 Report Posted April 13, 2011 Is this the same route /people that organised last years run ? Twas a cracking day out , looks very similar if not
nickb Posted April 13, 2011 Author Report Posted April 13, 2011 Is this the same route /people that organised last years run ? Twas a cracking day out , looks very similar if not No idea, missed it last year but hope we have a cracking route, we still have the chance to make some changes as nothing has been printed off yet.
Trevmk3 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Posted April 15, 2011 Didnt know there was a run last year, was trying to get one together myself but lost all time once again (can you see a pattern forming here ) Any more people interested?
duttnut Posted April 17, 2011 Report Posted April 17, 2011 I wonder if you might be able to give a little infomation on the places/times we might stop on the way, pubs, carparks, etc for refreshment and photo opertuinties
nickb Posted April 17, 2011 Author Report Posted April 17, 2011 yep, working on it, should have the details on here by next weekend

Need to know so i take the right car - one is only a 1500 auto and it has no go at all but i do like to drive it!!!
Trevmk3 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 i would of thought it would be a nice leisurely one as some of the areas will be alive with police with speed traps most likely (although i could be wrong)
mk1rob Posted April 22, 2011 Report Posted April 22, 2011 im happy for it to be leisurely as hopin to have my car slammed by then. Dont wanna rip anything off underneath
Trevmk3 Posted April 23, 2011 Report Posted April 23, 2011 im happy for it to be leisurely as hopin to have my car slammed by then. Dont wanna rip anything off underneath yeah that happened to me on the cortina, exhaust sort of mostly came off and getting the rest off resulted in a flattened finger and getting deaf on the way home
fridgeman Posted April 23, 2011 Report Posted April 23, 2011 no can do,cars still not ready.getting bored now.
