I get where they're coming from wanting to discourage people from using the route, I did the triangle a few months back for the first time and saw a Focus RS over take me and a long line of cyclists around a blind bend and drive like a general numpty for a few laps. It's also nowhere near quiet or wide enough to enjoy it as a fun Road even below the speed limits, let alone to get to the speeds in the video.

Depends when you go I suppose, I've been several times and it's been very quiet and been able to have a lot of fun without going balls out mental.
I don't really like the tree lined bit at the start of the video as that's the one section it's very easy to get to license losing speeds if you don't rein it in a bit.

Why is the "average speed" all over the place? 
Do they mean "speed"
Do they mean "speed"

I’ve been balls out mental on it in the last 12 months. I was shaking after the first lap

Speed aside, I didn’t see the cam car do anything particularly dangerous. The Focus ahead did do a dodgy overtake, though.

I'm not familiar with the triangle as I live a long way away, but none of that looked 'fun'. Obviously they showed the high speed straight-ish bits in the vid. I presume there are some more funnerer bits?

Tuck 'em in and take your meds
At least, that's what I've got to do

That footage is mostly the faster bits, the rest is a bit more interesting for various reasons. That said, there are far better roads in that area but I'm not about to advertise them on a public board, you'll have to find them yourselves :pmr_jon wrote: Sun Aug 12, 2018 8:59 pm I'm not familiar with the triangle as I live a long way away, but none of that looked 'fun'.
