    10am
    Leaving 1st meeting point at the entrance outside Hall Farm LN1 2LJ on the A1133
    Crossing Dunham Bridge (free for bikes) and heading to Sheffield along the A57.

    11am
    Arrive at Sheffield Motorcycle Centre S3 8GZ for breakfast and a brew, plus pickup those from Yorkshire.

    11:30am 'ísh
    Try not to get lost up the A629/A616/A628 to the Woodhead Reservoir.
    Down to Tesco Glossop for fuel if required.
    Back along the A57 (Snake Pass) and around the south side of Ladybower Reservoir to the Dam.
    Back up to the A57 (Snake Pass) to Sheffield Motorcycle Centre somewhere between 1:30-2pm.

    The route around the Peak District and back to Sheffield Motorcycle Centre is about 60 miles and takes 2 hours. They’re not fast roads, but are extremely scenic (and probably very dangerous at speed), so I won’t be going quick except where safe.

    Most likely not. I work away from home so not really fair for me to spend half the weekend out on the bike :(

    I thought that might be the case after I stalked your profile to see where you are coming from :D

    For some reason the mapping has taken the route down this track

    The road goes where the white line is indicated by my very professional red arrows :D
