Re: Better than work
Unfortunately Snake Pass was shut due to a landslide so had to divert via Speedwell Cavern & Castleton, another amazing road ended up at Derwent just as a Hercules was re-enacting a Dambusters run, very evocative.

Re: Better than work
Derbys and Peaks is great. Tis a pity rides like the Cat & Fiddle and Snake Pass got too popular. Now it's all 40mph limits and cop helo's up there. Though being there in the off season means less attention so your fun shouldn't be curtailed too much.

Re: Better than work
The old 5 O have been conspicuous by their absence and yes the Cat & Fiddle is 50mph average cameras, but all the roads around are just as good and Nationals!

Re: Better than work
We'll the last day saw us take a trip across the boarder to North Wales and a visit to The Old Stores Motorbike Cafe. Full of amazing memorabilia and characters.Worth a visit if you're in the area. Again some amazing roads and only saw one rozza with a speed camera all week enabling you to get it on like Donkey Kong!!

It'd be a long trek, it's between Wrexham and Mold in north Wales.
