you really wont believe me, but ive ridden that road on my cbr, fully loaded with luggage and cam[img]ing gear.

there is a really scary bit, really stee[img]p downhill section followed by a hair[/img]in on gravel. , a few feet away from a cliff edge,

we were getting worried, my reserve light was on, and my navigator had decided after leading us down this route, that we were well and truly lost.

sorry for all the random [/img]'s, my keyboard is broke 1

Very nice Rich.

This corner in the Priddy Mineries:

is where I wrote off my Vectra a few years back.

And you're right about the Hunters Lodge. It's a local pub for local farmers (and Cavers) but the best pint of Butcombe you'll get .
