smilinjack 0 Posted July 6, 2013 Doing a 130 mile figure of eight round the Peak District with the VFR owners forum that I'm on. They seem to take it a bit seriously do some like with satnavs etc, a lot of IAM/ROSPA types who actually now ride GS's but I think they're basically sound. Mind you I'll be on the Speedy If you're in Derbyshire keep an eye out for us-I think about 20 bikes. I'll hopefully be having a butty at Windy Ridge Cafe near Leek, so I'll pop a review on for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smilinjack 0 Posted July 7, 2013 OK, I'm back. That was a good day's riding and no mistake. Decent bunch of guys-it's always a bit weird to basically pitch up & ride off with a load of strangers. Anyway, I'd forgotten how great the Cheshire side is, we really must get out that way. Basically from Yondermann to Owler Bar near Sheffield, then back roads through Bakewell, Hartington, lunch stop at the Windy Ridge near Leek. I had a nice bacon egg & mushroom baguette which cost £5.20 with coffee.On through Leek & Wildboarclough, pint of orange at Cat & Fiddle, where I said my farewells as I wanted to be home at a decent time. Done about 140 miles of largely blinding roads and did pretty well with traffic too considering. Had the bike airborne on the A54 but what the hell. Didn't really stop so no pretty pics except for one near my favourite hill.Well I did say didn't I?On the way home near Monyash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
