hammer5 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Count me in if you are up my way. We was all over your place week before last.. but I'm thinking either;Buxton way, snakes 627 628 Buxton a6 etc.Or North Yorkshire, harrogate, squires, a59 etcOr lakes?

Graham Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Not done it in years, but Macclesfield, cat&fiddle, Buxton, snake pass? Or something that way, Sparrowpitt etc?If we do, we'd possibly meet elsewhere or people en-route?I'd say for most it'll be a round trip of around 150/180 mls as a rough guide, with a couple of stops, bru/food/toilet etc. Weather permitting a stop at The Cat&Fiddle.

hammer5 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Should be a good ride, we need to find some off the beaten track roads away from the boys in blue.I know a few that link up Castleton to a dodgy A road via a B road, but It's not a devils - hawes road, its more a Ewan McGregor road I'll jump on Google Maps & have a smooch.One of the Aprilia lads lives in the Wakefield area, rides a KTM 1000 pulls wheelies at 90 etc knows some seriously amazing roads that way but I think he's still in bed due to a high-side at Donny.I'll bell him & see if he's moving yet.

hammer5 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 It looks like he'll be the kind that attracts attention which is what we don't want Of course, just like Tom's mate at the back end of last weeks race, :ugeek:He's a extremely experienced track & road rider in his late 40's riding a duke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammer5 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Shall we meet B&Q carpark Oldham, there is a butty van say 10.15 10.30 set off 10.45....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Shall we meet B&Q carpark Oldham, there is a butty van say 10.15 10.30 set off 10.45....? That would be ok if it was just us few, but Tom's (Burscough) up for coming out so I said i'll look at the map for a suitable meet point. Perhaps us few should meet up locally & ride to meet Tom?I thought there would be more up for this ride, perhaps most are still in hibernation lol.

hammer5 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I'm guessing some will join without posting like last time..I can come to yours or meet Tesco Bury fuel point, then ride up meet Tom somewhere & choose from there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 I put Bowness on there to see if it was any better than Buxton way. Looked at the map & Tom will have a treck to come & meet us this way so hope he's ok with it. I'll confirm all later today mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
