Aye up Truckosaurs, not got anything concrete yet mate. Wouldn't mind meeting up next weekend, but unfortunately my truck is still fairly standard and don't want to risk it on the more extreme lanes . At least they sound extreme! But if you fancy doing a few of the easier / moderate ones then let me know.John Boy might be able to make it next Sat, and Manny was interested too, lets see what we can come up with.

The first photo is a view from Macc/Buxton Old Road, the second I know as Charity lane near Macclesfield forest the third is the Old Road again and the final one is just north of the midshires way, I'm not sure of the name on that one. One or two other nice lanes around there too. Sounds like you were on a few of the lanes I wanted to recce today between Buxton and Bakewell .

Have a good'un tomorrow lads what date are you looking at for the end of november

[furio]

Unfortunately the run has been cancelled tomorrow as some of the lads can't make it (never mind lads there's always next time!). Still up for going out though sometime. If anyone is interested, post up the dates you're free and we'll take it from there. We can do the lanes i know in the area first and then check out a few of the others i had planned later.
