Hi

Anybody here out yesterday at the snakes pass, anyone mad enough?

Well me and some other mates headed up to the snakes pass for a ride, one on a Hyosung GT125R other on a Honda XR125 and me on the X9 125.

We made it to the snakes pass, at the bottom it was -1 and we was ok, but got halfway up and temp was -10 and dropping and sheets of ice across the lanes and snow, if you been to the top gone down on throw the twistys with the BIG drop on left, you would understand why we turned back and went home LOL going down we would be sliding down on ower ars and dropping off the edge to ower death, the others were tempted but i talked them out of it. and agreed to come back on anice hot summers day. We planned to go to the cat & fiddle but agreed the average speed cameras thats been put up would ruin it, iv not been since they put them up.

We stoped at a pub called ladybower pub i thinks it called, for a warm meal and coffe.

No pictures yet, but will post them once i get them uploaded.

Not everyone speaks Yorkshire lad!

Also why would average speed cameras affect a bunch of people on 125 scooters/non 2 stroke 125's?

Its a 50mph limit on the cat & fiddle... we wanted a blast down there doing like 60mph thats reason. sticking to 50mph and keeping your eyes on your speed-o to make sure the Avrage speed camera dont cacht you out kinda boring.

Not been down, but heard the camera are ont he full lenth of it, and Also seen in mcn that it runied it for alot of bikers as the speed limit for the road used to be higher.

Then my mistake, I assumed you were taking the piss. To start another piss take thread. Like a Ste and X9Travels kissing in the tree K.I.S.S etc. Get my drift.

Karma Thumbs Up Karma

I think the OP summed himself up nicely with the comment, that they wanted to come down at 60+ but could not due to the average speed camera's...

Not a mention of the fact that the weather is sub zero, has been snowing followed by nice sunshine to melt it accross the roads just to freeze again.....
All on a road that claim's enough lives in the best of the weather Evil or Very Mad

average speed camera's on a 50mph road just ruins the day.

Not wanting a 60.00 fine, while trying to enjoy the road and the view, you gota keep your eye on the speed-o and make sure you dont creep over or your fucked.

How can you enjoy the view at 60? Don't be so silly. 50mph is fast enough to enjoy yourself on that road in the current conditions. If you want to break the speed limits so badly, try a track day.

Edit :

Sorry, have to agree with the others there as well.
