blakeatron Posted June 27, 2009 Posted June 27, 2009 Sounds like a great run - but cant tomorow or the 27th. 5th sounds ok though Should have my satnav by then too.... Quote
jimsoon Posted June 28, 2009 Author Posted June 28, 2009 Managed it today, didn't need the instructions either!! It was great till I got up to hartside cafe, then on the decent the clouds were low, that combined with my dark visit wasn't too much fun, but only managed to crash once! Not a proper crash just used some of the grass on one of the bends, managed to keep it up right! : )I'll start a new thread for next week! Quote
The Jade Mongoose Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 That road down from Hartside is a nightmare. I got attacked by a buzzard there once. Quote
jimsoon Posted June 29, 2009 Author Posted June 29, 2009 it was really good the last time i did it, the sun was out and there were no cars!! Quote
