All This Talk of Hardtops - Not This Week

Post by cj10jeeper » Fri Jul 31, 2015 6:27 pm

Had time on my hands, tank of petrol and a very sunny yesterday, so got an all day pass out and spent it in the Peak District

Hardtop not required :)

Probably covered 100 miles of lanes from Ashbourne are up the Monsal Dale, Lathkill Dale, Hartington and finished up in Dovedale. Climbed Thorpe Cloud just for the hell of it....

Thought you might enjoy a few pictures (albeit just iPhone snaps)

The above 2 were taken from the tiny bridge by the farmhouse dead centre of the image below - cracking spot to stop..

Beautiful scenery and a stunning Z. Mines the same body colour red interior and alloys as yours but mines totally standard at the moment and trying to keep it that way but seeing yours your not making it easy lol!

Very nice. Looks like you had a stop at Hartington - hope you went and stocked up at the famous cheese shop?

Good spot - that picture was taken with my back just outside the shops gate.
I resisted the cheeseburger this time :)
