But there must be some good roads like that!!


Ok, how about this for a route....

Meet at Whoop Hall at 12:00

Head up towards Windermere & pick up the A592

Follow A592 North along the edge of Lake Windermere.

(Could take a detour half way up and get the little car ferry across Windermere, which would look quite cool full of coupes).

Carry on up the A592 up to Kirkstone Pass.

Stop for some food at the pub on the top.

Carry on up the A592 through Patterdale and along the side of Ullswater.

Head off into Keswick for a stop and a look round here cars of the stars museum.

Head back down the A591 to Ambleside.

Down the A593 & A5084 past Conniston Water.

Onto the A590 and back to Whoop Hall.

Nice big loop there taking in the main lakes and some excellent roads. Should take all afternoon with a couple of stops - back to Whoop Hall about 6:00pm?

How does that sound to everyone?

I just thought,fccuk it i don`t want to be going back up the road myself °\( . I`d probably end up in Birmingham anyway \:D . I was going to ask Sparky if he wanted to share but i`m not sure whether my other half was going to come along with me on camera duty .

Pags route looks IMO \:\) Peeps will be coming a long way so that sounds a good meet to me \:\)

We can check in the Whoop Hall around 11:30 probs cowboy then do the meet then get back at 6:00 ish ready for dinner and a few beers \:\)

Only problem with the Traveloge place is. erm, that's all it is.

We will have a luvverly dinner, nice log fires, wing back armchairs with Laphroig seved and a full breackfast in the morning

(if we can wake up \:D )

I would like to come to this, but it's a bit too far in the future for me to commit, so I'll have to be put down as a no.

I might try and jump in last minute if the opportunity arises.

IIRC the car ferry goes from Windermere to Hawkshead. You queue for the ferry and it holds about 20 cars. Hawkshead is a luvverly little town - like stepping back in time

Pag does your route go from Hawkshead around the lake, then onto the Kirkstone pass \:\? That would be brill if it did \:\)

Cowboy - have you booked the Whoop Hall \:\? PM me \:\)

Yes, was thinking something like that. I'll have a closer look at the weekend and post a more detailed route & see what everyone thinks.

Car ferry takes about 10mins each way - had it filled with Mini Coopers a couple of times which looked good, back in the days when my mini had wheels & an engine of course.

I know it's a wee while away yet but fancy meeting up at Harry Ramsdens in Guiseley then going in convoy up the A65? That also goes for anyone else from the Yorks area.
