I was having a Skype chat with @FRANKIE the other day out in the Shed when he spotted my rear facing camera (Dashcam). He asked what the view was like , so here's a bit from off the A628 (Woodhead). There is a bit of wind noise on the Mic so don't have your volume up high.

Brilliant. That's the turn off to Glossop. I'm usually coming the other way so its the end of my run. You just missed the turning for Holme Moss, although its a tricky turning coming from that side.

10 minutes away, if ever you are in the area and don't stop for a coffee I'll be offended . . .
 
The turning for Holme Moss coming from Sheffield way you have to turn right back on your self if I remember right?

Yep. Tricksy to do as its on a bit of a blind corner too . . .

However. When I do it in the reverse direction (ie coming from Glossop), the Holme Moss turning is an easy Left . . .

Getting warm enough the ice cream van should be back up there soon . . .

All I could think of when you said "it's a tricky turn.." is the time I'm driving my rental car down the road with @Rev ahead of me. We come to a "T" and @Rev makes a right turn. I have to make the same right turn but it's my first day driving in the UK and I look the wrong way to see if anyone's coming down the road before I pull out. I look down the road and am fully confident there's no one coming so I pull out to make the turn. Unfortunately, I was looking the wrong way and as it turns out, there was a medium sized van coming down the road. He swerved to avoid hitting me, just barely able to control the van. I know he had a few choice words for me. I realized what a stupid move I had just made that almost cost me my life and that of another person. I get a chill just thinking about it..............................Frankie
 
@FRANKIE I led 3 Z3's up the wrong side of the road on a trip to the Netherlands then shouted at the Transit van driver coming towards me just before I realised I was on the wrong side of the road. Not sure who was the bigger fool, me or the 3 that followed me? :whistle:=))

They said: "Hey, they must have made this a one way road since I was on it last....."
