You're as bad as me, I'm at motram show which is sooooo close but alas I'd get slapped if I left our lass and went laning

 

[elty001]

Still room for a couple of trucks if anyone fancies a few hours out:thumb2

 

[elty001]

It was a cracking day out:thumbs
Will post some pics and vids when I have uploaded them

 

[jims-terrano]

Cool, glad someone had a good day out in Derbyshire today :doh

 

[elty001]

I take it your day didn't go as planned then jim.
I have to say this was the best day out in the peaks so far.
Did the planned route but we where still hungry for more so made our way over to hollinsclough for the final lanes of the day.
Was well worth the drive.:thumbs

Have got a few short vids I will upload later:thumbs

 

[exosteve]
