I may just meet you in stanhope mate, I know theres some chaps from a little further south that would probably prefer to head the durham route, I know you're just going from beamish because its right near your house ya lazy git lol

I could alsobe interested at meeting ou ta Stanhope if ou dont mind a shed coming along:D

10 am is the planned meeting time for beamish and looking into 10.45 for when we arrive into Stanhope! General moderate pace for most people with the odd blast, however on this trip last year a biker was killed and the road was closed, so be fore warned some of the bikers go nuts with the speed!

as leeroy said bikers do like the speed.. the above mentioned biker put himself through a wall.. just take a steady pace and enjoy the drive as this road can bite!

For those who dont want to go up the beamish way feel free to follow me.

If people want to go through durham and crook then on to stanhope then I will be happy to meet them at the Shell garage on the A690 which is just off the A1 at Durham.

So thats:

Shell Garage at the end of the A690 at 9.45(am)

Shell A690 postcode DH1 1LU
 
  Titanium 182
Meeting place for the rest is DH9 0RG. When you turn right at the round about to come into Beamish you need to take the first left into the small car park.

Anyone needs direction drop me a PM and I will give you my mobile number.

I might come to this but I'm scared I'll cook my brakes, before I bought it they fit cheap pads and very little braking and they smoke and overheat very very quickly.

I can't cook the brakes on my dci without a hard try on heartside. And will be too much traffic to have a good run. Melmerby to the top later on in the day would be the best!

You'll not be able to go quick enough to cook the brakes mate, I've seen some nasty consequences of people going to fast in busy periods (Bank Holidays), not a pretty sight

Weather was a fail :( Bit of a pitty everyone went oppisate ways too haha! I made the wrong decision of heading back towards penrith after the bp garage, to then see the fella in the 200 heading the other way so i turned round and followed the majority of the crew to Brough and middleton but couldnt catch you's back up :\
