59bhp Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 yeah been up once or twice, going down kills your breaks lol Quote
Bourkey Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Has to be the best road in the UK. Im very biased of course. If you know he road very well then you can take it quickly and saftely, otherwise stay blow 50 as if you don't respect the road it will send you into a wall or down a drop. Twas a mint day out there. Except when it rained a little and when my Lara Croft of a girlfriend nearly put us in the reservoir. Was fecking hilarious when we were taking pictures of the cars and there was some mating going on in the car behind. I'll put the pics up tomorrow but it was funny.And it was mega gay when i was flying down the motorway and my intercooler pipe popped off. Shite little clips. Was n/a for 12 miles.Bourkey Quote

Bourkey Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Pictures as promisedThese first few are of a small section of the road.Doesn't look sunny in the pictures but an hour later there was only one or two tiny clouds in sight.These are of our cars when we parked up. The silver BMW behind is the car with the loving couple in the front seat ;)I've heard so many bad things about the cat and fiddle. There is too many bikers on it apparently. Thats why there is so many deaths on that road.Bourkey Quote

Gilly Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 i think i have driven down this road before not realizing and what a road it is!! definitely one to remember!! Quote
Sparky Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 Really wouldnt think that was anywhere near Manchester Quote
Bourkey Posted July 3, 2008 Posted July 3, 2008 Remember guys that is just a few pictures of about 100ft of the road. It's about 23 miles long. Go on it at about 6am (no traffic) in the dry, in summer and you will never forget it. trust me!!!!!! The drive, the view the feeling. It's just fantastic!!!!I've done it about three times a that exact time and it was brilliant. The first time it was just me and an impreza. I kept up all the way. I sure it was mainly due to him not knowing the road as much as me. I've driven it dozens of times.Bourkey Quote
