Hi all,
Been over the legendary cat and fiddle today, perfect weather and conditions.
Met a friend at the pub, had a chinwag for an hour or so.
Was only the scooter in the car park but ha ho!!!!
Try it sometime soon.

Does a base fiddle count? (From Walt Disney's "The Aristocats")

Yes, great ride; I did it on my X9500 about four years ago - in very damp conditions so that the back end kept sliding even though we were going slowly.

Isn't that now officially the UK's most dangerous road. The Aerostich catalogue used to have copies of an old 1950's road safety print that they used to display on the Cat and Fiddle with the warning ''Ride like a knob and you'll die''.
