I got back a fair bit ago but...

https://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~noriba74/images/route.jpg

This bit of road is the coolest i have ever been allong in my time on a bike, never seen anything else like it, if any of you are ever on the way north to buxton take a detour defenately worth it! truely amazeing, watch out for the goats though...
Check out the bit on point 4 like nothing i have ever seen in the uk steep hill tigher turns than you'd ever seen...
The roads back to ashbourne weren't bad either Smile not more than 3/4 miles long but an amazeing bit of road! Best of all found completely by accident!

Anyone else got some good seekrit roads to share with us?

Good ride out is that Thumbs Up I would be out there today but I need to pick my bike back up. There are a load of my mates out there today and there is a film crew from Men and Motors out with them. Shame I'm missing it really.

Should have a pic of the twisty bit later (my mate took his camera).
The bit going up to it is equally amazing, the road is in great condition for saying its in the middle of nowhere, no markings just tarmac, surrounded but mountainous hills either side, great stuff Smile

Maybe (if people have autoroute) people could post the file with the route on with their fave ride out? attached yesterdays evening ride...

Looking forward to the weather getting better though, should be another great year Cool Going for a ride up the A52 to skeg on thursday, another great ride out, no death defying bends but a nice laid back ride with great scenery and dirty postcards when you get there (chips aren't bad either Smile )

divuk83 - by the looks of the weather today you aren't missing too much, just another couple of weeks i reckon till were moaning about it being too hot Very Happy....

How much of a detour is that ride from cat and fiddle way?

it would be something like this... its 7miles or so south/east of buxton..
Cat and fiddle is a great run too (apart from when its snowing, then its just scarey)

One thing cornwall is good for is roads,

Went down to Truro the other day, its mostly 50's but the roads are wicked.
