Not from you way, leaving Essex 9am Friday. M11, A1, A66 turn right somewhere. Unless from the A1 their is a Sexy route I can use, please feel free to recommend

[Road2Manchester]

A1 to Beedale, weyburn, Reath, Tan Hill, Brough, Middleton in Teesdale, St Johns Chapel, Wearhead.... Haggs Bank.... pretty as it gets....

Whats the A66 off the A1, Barnard Castle Route like? Apart from 20 miles less

David - the A66 / Barnard Castle route will end up in Middleton in Teesdale where you could meet Pete. It's a nice twisty route & the views across the Pennines are superb from any road up there.
Alternatively, if from the south, keep on the A1 a little longer, exit A68 (junction 58?) then branch off to Stanhope on the A689 which is also a nice road (don't miss the left branch off at Cowshill).

Sadly, I can't go. I'm on-call & no longer have a mobile dongle so can only access work through wifi. Have a good time

Will them el cheapo Pay As You Go Dongles not do?

Thanks for the thought, that's exactly what I've used for 3 years. I was on-call at last years Haggs Bank weekend too & decided to risk it. But 3 weeks ago work cancelled the dongle usage & disabled the USB ports (work laptop) - a company that is rapidly going down the pan....

I'll miss catching up with friends but I'm trying to get a massive amount of house improvements done in a very short space of time so if I could go, I'd be torn :silly:

Don't forget the vintage trials on the Sunday - this was a fantastic event to watch (thumbs)

[optimisery]

Elle, I will hopefully catch up with you again at another meet (thumbs)

Hoping the trials are fairly early as have to get back home and work on Sunday

Pete & David - see you there !

Hi pete
Where you setting off from and what time ?

[Road2Manchester]

Sorry for delay

Billy is leaving St helens after work,(See facebook)
There is a gang meeting at Devils Bridge at 3pm Friday. (3-5 bikes)

I am going from Sale M33 to via Bury, Winfields, Settle, Hawes, Tan Hill via Middleton on Tees, St Johns and then Haggs, leaving home somewhere around 11.30- noon. ( I do not know this route past Hawes, but it looks good on the map.

Any takers for Settle, Hawes or ?????
