Default Crazy Forest Road
I was heading back from the Sunseeker Rallye in bournemouth this evening ( a friend was driving) and we decided to take the backroads towards Lyndhurst, Just before getting to Lyndhurst my freind decided to shoot off left down one of his favourite backroads, It is a really crazy road with insane camber, a nice tunnel, some fantastic scenery and a chicane or two, it is in the centre of the forest so you have to take care (and it was foggy this evening so we stuck to 40) to watch for animals but none the less and epic road, the google maps images really dont do it justice, if you happen to be in the ofrest go there just for comic value!!

and not far from Burley which is a pretty little village full of thatched cottages, tea rooms, strange witchcraft shops, tarot readers, Toad Hall and a great pub with a huge car park

The B3347 from point B on your map (Ringwood) to Christchurch isn't bad either, but this does look pretty special

MMMM looks like that will be worth a visit.

Verysideways, which stand will you be on? Think I will pay the show a visit, looks like there will be plenty to do there.

Lamborghini club uk and tour support vehicle not found. I went to the show today and there was a distinct lack of cars in the designated area for lamborghini club uk.

Still had a good look round the show and am feeling very tempted by a caterham roadsport sv
