The next DASHr run is on the 05/10/2014

Hi all, i'm putting together the next run, this is a new rout, new timings, and the first to be based on the new webpage. However as always all cars allowed, and it should be a fun drive through great scenery and on some of the best roads in the country. This is a big one. The last run I did was roughly 60 miles, this one is 85 miles. I have upped the distance and heavily altered the rout after some of the clubs members who came on previous runs requested it extended and with more stops. It will start at the usual start point of the moorlands pub in sheffield. From here we will take the extremely long, windy scenic route to a pub in one of the chocolate box villages in the chatsworth estate. The run will include the surprise view at foxhouse, the Legendary Snake Pass start to finish, the mam tor moving mountain and its edale road. A short yet insanely steep hill to really put your car through their paces, the spectacular monsal head viaduct, and finally passing the chatsworth house stately home as we head to one of the picturesque local pubs. Where possible I have planned to stick to the small windy and scenic roads and take us through some beautiful villages. Full rout plan with map is attached, if you have difficulty accessing it or have any questions, issues or concerns, email me [email protected].

 

 

I'm just putting the final touches to the rout plan and details page. All rout plans and further details, updates and so on, will all be put onto the blog page for the club. Always check this blog page before setting off, in case of last minute changes. Also remember that the club is still just as active,its just moving from facebook to a blog page. 
Blog page: http://dashruns.blogspot.co.uk/

I will also put the documents and updates on here. Spread the word of the run, tell your local clubs! Its for all cars not just minis, however on the whole we end up with a majority of minis. Times, rout, and other such details should be up here in the next few days.

Thanks, James Newsam - Organiser.

Hi, I can't access the other details.  Do you have a postcode for the pub and what is the start time?

 

Cheers

Dave

Awesome! It will Be Nice to see you again Sam :)

And we just skim the edge of glossop and head strait out again towards hayfield. Once the rout is up in a week and a bits time, pm me and I'll pull over briefly somewhere round there so you can join us.

Sorry if my responses are a tad slow ATM, I'm on Holliday and ire rare I find wifi, and rarerthat it's working well.
