Hello all me, MiniGrin and DEXISWOLF are organising a Mini Run starting from Sheffield and going everywhere we don't know when yet as some of you know MiniGrin hasn't got his mini back so when he does and he knows its working we will go then :P

I have a link to the run posted below we might not be following that route but when we decide i will upload the new link with time date and other things. 

 

Let me know what you think :P

Sorry about the confusion, this - see image - is the final rout Im planning on doing. I will type up some directions later on in the week. I will put up a date once I get my car back :) its going to be about 70 miles aprox through the peak district countryside, some fast roads, some twisty fun ones and some slower yet very scenic ones, should be fun :D

The previous links were not working very well, i had planned in the rout on the image, and then when I copied the Link Google maps was only copying the predicted / fastest rout - not much fun, and not the tweaked scenic non direct rout im planning on taking.

The rough rout outline (image not of great quality) is to go from millhouses park, Sheffield, to Matlock bath Via Baslow. Then from M.B onto monsle head but on a differnt rout off through the middle of nowhere and from there again going a long unusual rout into Bradwell, then Castleton, up whinets pass and around mamtor to Edale and then into Ringinglow village via hathersage. 

Oh and as its about 70 miles so remember to fill up with petrol before hand, and at the end location "ringinglow road" there is a pub that we will end in.

Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.
