Cat & Fiddle Run: Pictures...

[Christopher]

A few of of headed up to the Cat & Fiddle today for a run. We made the best of the dry roads and got three or four runs of the whole road in. Then the cloud came in... Still, it made it more of a challenge.

I think we all got a bit twitchy under braking once the roads were damp!

I can still smell Ben's brakes too Good to see you all again. Add your pictures in here, since I only took a few... too cold!

Cracking road! Used to love driving around that area! So much fun! Its the only thing that made living in Buxton worthwhile... the great roads!

 

[Christopher]

Yeah, we hit it early enough to miss most of the traffic.

We still had a wannabe hero in a TR6 though. But I managed to deal with him.

Awesome road. Glad i mad the effort to get up now.

Brakes were smooookin

More pics required!

 

[Curtis!]

Looks like a good drive, how many ended up turning in in the end?

 

[Nafoff]

sounds good chris, need to visit at some point

 

[Jamie]

Wow, thought you would be out longer than this tbh.

Bit of a shame for those making a fair trek for only an hour or so.

 

[Kerryclio]

Sounds like a good day :approve:

Started at 9am. We left at 12.30pm.

 

[Jamie]

Yeah, leaving Lymm at 9.30 or so...? So how long was the run then?

 

[Christopher]

More pics required!

People took better pics than me! LOL.

I concentrated on staying warm and try to keep Ben from catching me! Rapid that thing is.

 

[172Ben]

It was long enough for some peoples brakes, and my wallet.

The weather was a hinderence(SP), cloudy as anything and when it started raning it was game over for me.

 

[Christopher]

Lymm at 9am.

We went up and down the road four times, Buxton and back, then pub, then back down it again to get home. Bad traffic by that time though.

Our overtakes were legendary.

 

[172Ben]

LOL, still cant get over his face!!

 

[Jamie]

Blimey, all that in 3 hours or so including travelling to and from your house. I would have thought with the pub included you wouldn't be back until late afternoon.

 

[Christopher]

LOL. Some boy, he was.

How come you didn't come Jamie? You should have.

 

[f0xy]

Looks cold. And damp.

Good job I couldnt make it, I would have probably come off the road, lol.

 

[jordan172]

looking forward to some better pics, love a good run

Should've whacked the Paradas on before you came. Would've been much better. LOL

It was pretty sketchy! That's why we cut it short and went to the pub!

 

[Jamie]

It was too early a start for me. I am also still put off by that big accident I had on a meet. Just always concerns me how fast people want to go. Don't mind the car park ones or those with a few mates but on a big run it just brings back memories for me.

 

[Christopher]

Ah yeah.

We couldn't go too fast because of the weather in the end. Although we did get to legally use our foglights.

Currently stuntin' some semi slicks on the front, its bad enough in the dry lol.

[Jonny1*2]

And then the fog came :S

Apologies for pic quality, it was really windy and freeeeeezing !!!
Was a good day out. Nice to meet everyone. Does anyone know who that was in the monoco outside with the family? thought it was sgtbash, but doubtful as i'm sure he's not from round here. Glad we went early, at least we had lots of grip early on. I nearly aquaplaned off on the way back :S

 

[BIFCAIDS]

told you my pics were shite looks like ive used a point and click ha ha ha

i honestly dont know who majority of you were bar the obvious few i know but it was great meeting you all (it was me in the Salford uni hoodie)

 

[legohead01]

 

[Jonny1*2]

ended up having a little blast on the way back with a bird in an arctic 182. Not sure if it was anyone off her? seemed slow though Could have been heavy right foot in the rain.

 

[Christopher]

LOL @ the fog

We should've been up there for 7am! Next time eh
