If the weather tomorrow is as good as it was today, I might have a run over to try out the Melton Classic car show after work http://www.meltonclassics.co.uk/

Think I have said this before and the last time it rained, so be prepared for bad weather tomorrow night :lol:

Hopefully if the weather is good this Sunday, I am going to do a circular run around the Peak District.

Start and end at Ashbourne, the gate way to the Peaks.

Anyone fancy joining in?

Ali only has little legs so plenty of space for the dog in the foot well so you could still come :lol:

Could have plenty of breaks too for good walks to tire the dog out.

Pub lunch sounds good for me too. :thumbsu:

Route I was looking at is around 60 miles circular out of and back to Ashbourne. About half way around is http://www.queenanneinn.co.uk/ which looks like it might do a good meal?

Stops could be Carsington Waters (only just out of Ashbourne) and a rock/mineral museum again near the start of run. Will email out the route map later for you to look over. Start could be either the 'central square' in Ashbourne or there is another car park that I remember in the town, will google it later.

Start at Market square (triangle) in Ashbourne. On A515 as you go through Ashbourne on the Buxton Road. Tourist information by it at post code DE6 1EU. A 10:00 meet for a gentle start to run when we ever we do start :thumbsu:

60 odd mile run - pub lunch at half way point.
