Bloody cold wasn't it! Me n orose went up to carsington water, it was a speed limit orientated ride (which may have been lucky as on the way back we saw a hidden speedtrap that will have been there as we were going the other way) but fun never the less.

Many at squires? Any cops?

When he says speed limit orientated, he means jammed so thick with traffic that he couldn't get away

Shush - I'm sensible.
Talking of; did you see my accidental mini wheelie on the way to matlock (just after that small roundabout setting off from the lights near sainsbo's). I heard the revs change or stutter or something wondered what it was then the bars went very light and I cottoned on. Got the blood pumping, need to get used to the bike again not too smooth at all.

via Batley to the White Bear on junction 28 roundabout, through towards Wakefield (the turning in the roundabout cuts into it, up the straight road, then turn left at the lights further up, down the straight round a right hand bend, then turn sharp left to Rothwell...errrrr can't remember rest unless I'm on the roads

Next time Peg is out, I'll give you a shout, and he'll show you the way, or Pmapp would if you ask him.
Get on google maps and it should give you the route from the Bear.
