Guest Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 It's the wind at 100mph that bugs me, bloody map won't keep still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Dont have a problem with the wind, I find having the map plastered to my visor makes it easier to read, at least until you get to a fold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ta muchly Bob.Am told the A6 from Buxton is a good ride (but then some-one said that about my ex, so dont believe all you hear).My suggestion from this side to get the ball rolling would be;Halifax to Homfirth, (via a scenic route)A6024 over the moor (very scenic and watch out for cyclists)B6105 to Glossop (ok now I'm in new territory)A624 to Chapel -en-le-FirthA6 to Matlock Bath.

Guest Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Brilliant...keep an eye on the thread....you can ride out from Hull with us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 3 FOR ME . FROM WHERE I LIVE I was thinking 3 hours too which includes the long way to Holmfirth, so that would mean an 8AM departure. however I've never ridden with a group so presume people might want to stop every now and again for nicotine top-ups, bladder problems, and the morning-after "casual chunder".Would a meet in Elland, which is easy to access off J24 M62 help those coming from the Far East?Oh, and has nobody ever heard the saying "Dont let the monkey navigate"?

Guest Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Oh and speedwise, I still consider myself a novice with virgin kneesliders if that helps with the timings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
