Could anyone help please. Coming to your area (Alferton, Matlock, Bakewell, Buxton) in our MG's end of July beginning August to look at your beautiful scenic areas. Wondering if well dressing will still be on. Would be grateful for any tips of special places we should visit.

Hi,

Matlock is a beautiful town often visited by bikers and it a goof drive through.

I would look at the specific dates and check on local shows (The capri club is hosting a show in the area around that time, Stratstone host a "Car Park Cafe" monthly morning meet with free teat and coffee and lots of exotic metal) to bump into local enthusiasts.

Feel free to drop me a line too - I can show you some great local roads. If you are on facebook, there is are two region specific groups, called ~"East midlands MG" and "EMMGF - East Midlands MGF/TF" - Jump into either of those and you will get a ton of options / places from locals around the three counties.
