@@TheMissendenFlyer sorry, I didnt mean I didn't like your videos... I love them. Infact you helped me narrow down my next bike. CB500X. I did have the 650vstrom xt but for my short ass it was a little big n bulky. I need to get down to fowlers bristol and have a test ride, what's your tske on the new '2022' CB500X
There are some great places not far from Matlock to "ride alone" ....one just needs an "Adventure Bike" or an "Off Roader" ....and you can ride anywhere a commuter/tourer/sports bike can go, and a host of other places too. Just "keep it legal" is the only caveat.
OMFG! I seen you there!! Im on the KTM Duke at 4:11 behind the TVR. I was filming all of the TVR's from outside of the sainsburys petrol station, a vid will be up soon!
Was there a few Saturday's ago and there was just as many bikes,apparently they have some kind of carnival thing once a year on the river which is worth seeing so I believe,lovely little place.
The carnival is beautiful. Loads of stuff going on .on the river.best illuminated boat competition. Children's fair.and awesome firework display.Oct.November time.jx
Glad you sorted that mate. Been riding to Matlock Bath since 1976 on my FS1E. Do it every week now since retiring, on my current bike collection. Oh, and I live in Derby.
Hi...thanks for posting. I live half an hour from Matlock. If you continue on the road where the vid ends and then turn right at the lights.....and then right agai it puts you on a fantastic winding free flowing road which eventually spits you out on the Buxton road.
Hi, just found this great video. At the time I was the organiser of this TVR car club run you are passing through Matlock Bath. The run is called " Thrills in the Hills " ( many videos available on here ) we used to get between 70 and 130 TVR,s blasting through the Peaks. Always great to go through Matlock Bath just for the reaction to the cars.
Lovely video, coming from nearby Sheffield, that is "my area" ....there are some great rides in & around the Derbyshire Peak District, and some great "Green-Laning" too if thats your thing ....I ride a 650 Yamaha Dragstar and I use a little AJS 125 "Scrambler" for my off roading forays all around that area.
I used to live in Darley Dale, just to the north and my abiding memories are of walking into Matlock Bath on a Sunday to view the bikes. A great meet there. Also enjoy the bike night at Poole Quay on a summer Tuesday.....
@@TheMissendenFlyer Your comment made me laugh. I do the same: 1998: My ZX9-R 1999: Must have been my first Hayabusa 2007: Honda Goldwing and on and on...... 2021: ZZR1400..... Such is life...
The locals call it 'Derbyshire by the Sea'! As you've probably gathered it gets packed in the holiday season; best time to visit is a Tuesday morning on a nice day April/May time.
I came back to Blackburn via Matlock in the fuel crisis we had last year or something. Lovely road and scenery. Also I like the fact there is a Subaru dealer there yay 👍
i love camping fishing free scuba diving exetra but nothing beats riding A motorbike👌👌love my bike she never lets me down👌👌but that's honda the most reliable make in the world👌👌👌👌
Wow. Super busy! So many TVRs...The Tuscan has the oddest interior I've ever sat in. Was going to rent one for a weekend, but ended up preferring the Griffith V8 :) My mother's always prattling on about Matlock - now I see why! Looks nice.
+Rob S Yes the ol' TVRs are brill - I've owned a couple in my time....did you ever see the inside of the Cerbera? Similarly space age......such a shame the company was mismanaged......I still fancy a Tuscan someday....
+TheMissendenFlyer I was once obsessed with Tuscans. Not quite so much anymore, but still appreciate them. No never seen the inside of a Cerebra - great exhaust note on those! Yeah I was quite surprised by the TVR interiors - very 'Jetsons'. Would love to own a TVR one day, and yes, great shame about the company.
Bit of a flying visit considering how far you'd come. Did you ever think about stopping? You would have found the refreshments a lot cheaper than those you had recently in the Thames Valley.
Yes it was a flying visit and of course I thought about stopping but I couldn’t find a space. It was so busy! This was so long ago it’s probably about time I revisited…
Tmf, sorry I'm a bit late catching up but only just seen this video for some strange reason and may I say you have done Matlock Bath Justice with your video, a cracking view of this wonderful place, I live 15 miles from Matlock Bath so it's a regular fish and chip run for me but may I say great to have Tmf riding through, the cliff edge you mentioned as you enter into Matlock Bath on your left hand side are a regular for rock climbers in summer, something to look out for. Nice one Tmf,till next time 👊👊
brill video.. Even on a normal saturday morning it gets busy with bikes.. The thing i do is to get there before 9.30.am.. and i ride in up the A38 from Birmingham..Park up opposite the chippy and have a good breakfast.. i have a tip it's to get there EARLY!!!!
+darian smith Cheers Darian, glad you liked it and completely agree with your tip - early mornings and Sunday's don't mix well with me though (hang on, it's Sunday today and I've been up since 6am!!!). Cheers for watching and commenting - all the best - TMF
Ah yes, your up in my neck of the woods here. Some great roads to explore all over the Peak District and Derbyshire. Plenty more to see if you ever come back this way.
Thanks for that. I'll add Peak District to my itinerary but I think I'll visit on a week day or is it always this busy?! Is filtering legit in the UK? It's just been enshrined in the road rules down here but drivers are still coming to terms with it...
+Chris Heggie Anywhere can be busy if the weather is nice so weekday is a good plan...and yes filtering is completely legal, and in our busy towns, a must!
Yes to be fair, I only ever had one complete engine failure requiring a total rebuild - but that was with the Ford V6 in the "S" - the Buick/Rover V8 was rock solid, no problems with that, just that amazing sound (piped through my "sports" exhaust of course!)....
+TheMissendenFlyer Hah. Well, the (unlikely) alternative was that you had developed a passion for biking up and down the M1. The important thing is that you had a good trip North.
As i live near holmfirth i usevthe holme moss to to glossop regular and over snake pass then back via strines moor simetimes i do matlock as you have done but glossop via buxton to bakewell and matlock isnt my favourite there are better ways to get there
If ur down this way on a summers evening Bassett s pole has probably more bikes than that on a summers evening it gets rammed on a Tuesday night between 6 and 930 cheers shane
I lived in Greenaway Lane, Matlock many years ago. Used to walk to Matlock Bath on a Sunday to see the bikes. Ironically all the time I lived there I didn't own a bike!
+Adventures With Bash?? AWB Yeah it sure is a busy place, hence my dash to Scotland a week or two later! Good to hear from you again, all the best - TMF
Hi you only have to google the words, but its a word play the Germans give for the BMW motorcycles. Translated Bring me to the Garage. ( a playdoer on it,s unreliability)- I had one of the first gs bikes ( New Ones) the clutch broke at 2,000 km.
Aha, I did try google translate and it came out with "Bring me workshop" which didn't make sense to me - understood now. Luckily I've never had any reliability issues with my BMW (said crossing fingers) so I haven't had to utter those words! Thanks for watching....TMF
I couldn't think of anything worse than riding through a built up busy area like that. You'll find me riding alone in the middle of nowhere
Fair enough

I'm so glad i live 15 minutes ride from the peak district. It's an awesome place to ride.
You're a lucky man!

+dazzie jackson Yeah, well worth an early morning visit I reckon. Cheers for watching - TMF
Matlock bath illuminations, candle lit floats on the river derwent, about 4 Saturday nights end sept early oct, very good and very busy.

Brilliant - used to love my old TVRs
A bike sunshine n matlock bath sounds good to me , go most sundays through summer with the missus on the tracer

Sounds great - you live in a beautiful part of the world….time I rode there again!
Try Poole Quay on a summer Tuesday evening. Makes MB look like a quaint little gathering....
I used to live in Darley Dale, just to the north and my abiding memories are of walking into Matlock Bath on a Sunday to view the bikes. A great meet there. Also enjoy the bike night at Poole Quay on a summer Tuesday.....
Yes I did that Poole Quay one when i bought my Street Triple in 2012 - about time I went back!

Been many times. That TVR cars is made near I recall?
No, they were Blackpool based….
@@TheMissendenFlyer Ohh. Thx
Some lovely roads round there. Always hearing bikers expound the wonder of the roads in wales, they didn't look arf bad :)
+GTs Garage .....except these roads are in England ;0)
Very nice TMF! Loved the TVRs. Had a Griffith 500 myself! :-) Tally Bally Ho!
+Captain Rambunctious Good man, I had a TVR "S" and then a Chimaera - fabulous beasts, if a little temperamental/sidewaysee......
TheMissendenFlyer AH, loved the sideways nature... Never broke down in 8 years of ownership! :-)
Yes to be fair, I only ever had one complete engine failure requiring a total rebuild - but that was with the Ford V6 in the "S" - the Buick/Rover V8 was rock solid, no problems with that, just that amazing sound (piped through my "sports" exhaust of course!)....
TheMissendenFlyer Absolutely... A sound that a motorbike could never match, in my heart that is...
Completely agree 100%....
Did you take this in on your way back from Cumbria and the Dales?
+Len Scapoff Len - You've rumbled me!!
+TheMissendenFlyer Hah. Well, the (unlikely) alternative was that you had developed a passion for biking up and down the M1. The important thing is that you had a good trip North.

Cat & Fiddle, got be done if you're in the area, fantastic roads up there, mega lucky to live close to all this myself
+heathy912 Yeah, I did the Cat and Fiddle on my last trip up, it's in here >> ruclips.net/video/xoocp4ljwMM/видео.html Great spot to ride!
I wish bikers would stop pestering the Peak District.
Wow it's awesome coz I live in the area :)
Great stuff...
I think that was the most traffic have seen in any of your videos !! Were you near London?
Nowhere near!
Nah, We in Derbyshire love Bikers.
"I've stopped nodding and waving at them now..." YES... you'd need a rubber neck on a Sunday around Matlock. Everybody feels the 'nod fatigue'. :-)
+CITIZEN ONE, Author That's a good problem to have though eh ?
It certainly is.
If ur down this way on a summers evening Bassett s pole has probably more bikes than that on a summers evening it gets rammed on a Tuesday night between 6 and 930 cheers shane
Cheers Shane....I should check that out (I've never heard of Bassetts Pole I'm ashamed to say - nor have a clue as to where in the world it is)...

if you plan a visit again soon give us a shout. be happy to meet up and ride some nice roads with you
Cheers...

Good plan!
The traffic would drive me mad.

Sure i live in Germany so i know a bit about BMW, i am a Brit though and love (when i visit) Matlock Bath.
