I think we were a bit too keen for everyone else to keep up at the start :lol: we got a fair pace ahead but there's only so much looking in your mirror you can do :D
The Italian driving philosophy - there's no point in a rear view mirror because what's behind you no longer exists... :D Great roads, but nearly collecting a bonnet mascot in the shape of a psychotic biker, overtaking on the wrong side of the road around a blind bend, was an eye opener!

Some pics from today :)

The courtyard at Gawthorpe Hall has to be one of the best finishing locations – well done Andy :thumbsup: and the cakes were good too.

I will post up the video later (problems uploading it) :driving:

Looks like you all had a good day out. Wish I could have made it but I've been a bit poorly recently. :thumbsdown: Hopefully I'll be fighting fit next time. :thumbsup:

Spent some good nights in the White Bear but last few years the pubs in the fringe villages are much nicer places

Assheton Arms / Downham
Spread Eagle / Sawley ( we passed by today )
Barley Mow / Barley
& The White Bull / Gisburn
are all worth a visit

What a shame. White bear was literally my local back in the 90's!
Coming originally from Liverpool, although not really having a scouse accent, it took about 4 years before the locals stopped asking me 'yur nut frum rewnd ere are ye?' Lol
Happy days.
