Me too mate! Trouble is that someone has to make a decision at some point! *NOTE - I AM IN NO WAY IMPLYING THAT ANY DECISION HAS SO FAR BEEN MADE!* I'm up the Cat n Fiddle whenever I can, but I've lived in Lancs/Yorks for some time in the past so know the routes around there (Bridge, Glasson, Squires) Now i'm in Manc stuck in the Cat n Fiddle Loop (with occasional Matlock addition!) - heading south through the peaks would make it a different ride for me too!

How many folks would be up for a loop heading through the peaks? Derby is over that way...... Could easily bugger off into Wales from there..... :D

20/21 september? I can only make the Sunday, but i'm up for a blat.

Dare I propose a start point?!

If people are coming from the North West, we could meet at Sainsburys at Cheadle Royal, about a mile off the M60 on the A34, 9am on the 21st of September, this year. For those who don't know the area, it's junction 3 (I think). Literally off the motorway, through one set of lights then take the exit signed 'Cheadle Royal'. No confusion! It's also right at the end of the M56.

If it's a go-er, i'll post more careful instructions!

Theres a petrol station where we'll all need to fill up :lol: From there I can guide us through the back roads to the Cat and down into Matlock - if anyone wants to take over there, be my guest! Zipper? FSM? Derby's not a million miles away!

Most will have to do 60 miles to meet, not so local for most but pretty central for England dwellers. Had to do 100 miles before last meet up, it doesn't happen if people dont travel.

As for the venue, i really dont care to be honest but Rivvy is a bit too local for me, could practically walk there and can see it from the village i live in.
