Peak District Sunday 2nd May

[TonyP]

Well I may have a new toy by Sunday so looking to go and tests it's abilities in the Peak district

So I know it's short notice, but here goes anyway.... Does anyone know of any good routes up there and would anyone like to join in on the fun, possibly lead us around?

Will probably be a mid morning to late afternoon stint before we have to come back down to smelly London.

 

[Chris]

What do you mean MAY well have a new toy? Not having second thoughts I hope

I live on the edge of the Peak and I don't know many areas. Nick might - Clean green and mean. He goes laning around here.
Paul H was up around Whaley Bridge a couple of weeks ago, but that's quite a way.

[TonyP]

Well I'm not having second thoughts at all... it's the seller that concerns me

Is Nick on here? Does anyone else have any ideas?

Cheers

 

[Paul]

I have a TOR road book for the peaks somewhere, i will try to dig it out.

 

[Chris]

Nick has the factory finish green Prado 90. Last post was My lifted Prado or something. I'll PM him to wake him up.

Well, Tony, having looked at the weather forecast for the weekend, I cannot accuse you of being a fair-weather 'laner You should get to test the mud plugging abilities anyway

Congrats about the purchase BTW A birdie whispered to me that you'd taken the plunge but you've been very coy about this!

You know I have not even looked at the weather report... oh well if we never ventured out when it rained we would never get anywhere

Congrats about the purchase BTW A birdie whispered to me that you'd taken the plunge but you've been very coy about this!

yup all done and dusted except the two most important bits, swapping cash for said vehicle hence the trip on Sunday and the desire to go play

Anyway the hint's been in my sig for over a week

Oh that... you've been chattering about getting a real cruiser for some time now, so we were all taking it with a pinch of salt

Congrats on securing Lil Blue - you won't be disappointed with it at all!

 

[Crispin]

getting a real cruiser for some time now

Excuse me?!?! What's wrong with a 120???

 

[TobyJug]

Have you got Memory Map?

I hvae an overlay here somewhere with 20+ lanes on there...
I took a group of Dutch around there recently...

Shame my truck needs so much doing otherwise I would have been happy to come along and show some lanes...

this could be interesting

 

[Andrew Prince]

Excuse me?!?! What's wrong with a 120???

Do you mean in terms of reliability or off-road performance?

[Pity we don't have a "pot-stirring" smiley! Or one with a fish taking the bait! ]

ignoring Andrew, walks off in a huff - with a shiny fish lure hanging from the corner of his mouth

- no offence meant there, the 120 is a great machine!

Apologies for the OT!
Cheers,

You will hear nothing if my 120 suffers some ailment in the peek district
