Just driven 375 miles from Bolton to Lossiemouth in the red beasty in 5 hours 30 minutes ish. Absolutely fantastic. S behaved itself perfectly. I can definitely recommend the B9007. Wonderful road. 9 minutes 15 seconds between snow gates. Beat that!

One of the trips I keep promising to make but never seem to get round to frown
Are you based in Bolton? If so it's good to know I'm not alone.

Oi !! That's my road mad

I'll give your time a go next time I visit my parents in Lossie. What takes you up there ? Great roads .... but I prefer the journey more than the destination smile

Hi Richard,
Bolton was in Lancashire when I was born so I consider it a birth right to claim Lancs citizenship wink
I have a regular "going for a quick spin" route which takes me over Belmont to the M65 junction at Hoghton then back home via Haslingden I'll keep an eye out for you in future sonar
