Snoopy Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Am planning a run up to DEVILS BRIDGE on Sunday 3rd June if anyone else is going and fancies meeting up? 8) Any ideas where the usual police hotspots are round that neck of the woods, or are they just everywhere? Quote
Guest markchris Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Ooh lions den..Make sure you've your standard plate/can on..Don't go balistic on the long open straights, nice fast unmarked cars on them..Take note if anyone flashs their lights at you, they've almost certainly seen some sort of trap...Still a popular place, but noticeably less so since the police started harrass sorry I mean started their road safety efforts.

Stealth Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Am planning a run up to DEVILS BRIDGE on Sunday 3rd June if anyone else is going and fancies meeting up? 8) Have a look in the General Ride Out section dood - we'll be heading your way via Hartside Quote
Stealth Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Bump ..... Proposed route is via Barnard Castle - Middleton In Teesdale - Alston - Hartside for lunch/coffee/meet Chicane, then along Ullswater & Kirkstone Pass with an ice cream stop/photo opportunity at Windermere, then on to Kirby Lonsdale - make your own way home from there Quote
Guest Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 when you get there make sure you park in the allocated bike area the wardens a sh@t hot if its nice day it will be packed too so if you cant get on the bike bay make sure your able to run over and tell the warden your leaving Quote

Guest Posted May 28, 2007 Posted May 28, 2007 Look out for marked and unmarked Subaru impreza's. I've seen a marked silver one and an unmarked blue one.I'd be very careful when thinking about passing cars too. Can't really get away with cars like that following you.Edit oh and I've seen a marked Skoda Octavia RS in Silver Quote
