Where to visit near glossop...

[Bryn]

I want to take the 2610 for a trial run this sunday.. been messing about with it for about an hour, still havent sussed the easy way to stick points of interest in it!

Intending to head towards Glossop or thereabouts.. anyone suggest some fantastic roads/views i can stick into the new toy?

Maybe this might be better in the GPS info forum, but I'll try here first!


Cheers Bryn

Holme Moss

Bryn -- Try the Holme Moss road - Glossop to Holmfirth . (Glossop - B6105 - A628 - A6024 - Holmfirth) .
Then , when it has fried your synapses and you've done the Holme Moss bit both ways a couple of times , stop at the viewing area at the top and consider the fact that the Milk Race guys did it all by pure muscle power !
Awesome !
Enjoy !!!!!!!!!
All the best , Jim .

And pop to the Strines Inn for lunch - it's on a little road between the Woodhead and Snake Pass roads

Thanks for the replies folks! ended up visiting The cat and fiddle.. a very welcoming "safety camera" van sitting opposite the pub

and I can't remember a 50 limit last time i visited...

Then over to Glossop for a fat boys breakfast in the cafe.. then Snake pass... being followed by the "eye in the sky"

Then Matlock....

As usual too many nutters spoil the roads for others.typical example was the T**T on a Mille overtaking everything across solid white lines in a 50 limit round blind bends obviously not an ambassador to motorcycling....

Pleasant day for a ride though!
