Another couple of good roads in N. Yorkshire that I remember when I lived in Skipton were
The road from Carleton over to Colne in Lancashire and the Road from Kettlewell over to Hawes very fast and a lot like roads on the Manx especially when quiet

1 and 2

thats weird, was only thinking of this today and was going to put a post up

as you ask then, i got three

1st - Rhayader to Cwmystwyth (Elan valley road used to take you to Myherin stages) awesome bit of road - some BIG drops, smooth tarmac, great views

2nd - Tregaron to Abergwesyn (via Tywi forest) just a minor road into the forests west of Builth Wells - great single track lanes through forests, over moorlands and very up and down

3rd - B3081 Sixpenny Handley to Shaftesbury (via Zig Zag hill) just up the road from Bournemouth - lovely drive on top of the Cranbourne Chase then into the 4 'monte carlo' zig zag hairpins (will be used in the southern tour,((whenever that happens))

HAVE TO AGREE WITH GRUM ON 1 and 2 !

That brought back some memories. I did the R L Brown rally in 1977. It was a round of the Motoring News Road Rally Championship that year and used Hardnott, Wrynose,Corney Fell,Birker Fell and the road all the way down the side of Lake Coniston plus many other classics that I can't remember the names of now. Fantastic roads. Are they used on the Lakes tour?

Yeah my dads done the R.L Brown between about 77-81.

No i wish they were used on the Lakes Tour,could cause a bit of a problem though with over 100 cars using it and others coming the other way

Hi, I don't suppose he's got a copy of the results and/or roadbook hanging around. I lost mine many years ago in a house move. Would love to get copies again for the scrap book
