Arseburgers. Doctor my number plate with insulting tape? Or just go somewhere else. Shame, I like the peaks.

Doctor your plate and you will be going somewhere else, and you won't be needing the bike....

The only section of the A54 getting the cameras is the section from buxton, upto where the A54 goes off to the left, then the cameras carry on down to the C&F pub.

The main section of the wont be getting any cameras, probably will be getting more traffic now unfortunately, and its debatably more technically challenging and longer that the C&F itself.

From what I have seen the sections getting cameras are

The A54 from section A to B and the A537 from B to C

The A54 really starts from A to C here...(Watching out for the awsome completely airborn jump at B)

Is it that bad really! In that case, since I stand to come off worst in any soap-dropping incident, I shall follow the advice given and try my luck with Herr Brünström's militia. Congleton-Buxton's lush, nice pub with a decent camping field about halfway.
