    All (well, almost all) entries on this thread are now on the map. It's getting busy! Need some more places from further afield than the UK though.

    Here's a couple of great places in California that I've visited, "The Rock Store" 30354 Mulholland Hwy, Cornell, CA 91301, United States, both have fantastic roads to get there

    Using part of it on the way down passing through Cairngorms but a little detour onto the A889 fits the bill nicely.
    Been a while since I was last on the A9, what’s up, apart from it’s full of speed cameras.

    I would avoid the A9 as there are much better roads if you're heading south (or North), i would cut off at Aviemore then head through the Cairngorms to Tomintoul, Braemar, Blairgowrie, it's much more scenic and the roads are great, or if you are coming from Spean bridge direction along the A86 take the turn off to Dalwhinnie if you want to go to the café then i would come back and take the A86/B9152 to Aviemore and head south as above

    What do they know:rolleyes: do they ride bikes:p. I go every wednesday night .
    either by bike or car. The only Cafe that closed in the area is the Oakdene Cafe, It was a very busy bike cafe but had issues with bikes doing wheelies and getting a lot of police attention. But Mickeys Diner in Detling is going strong still.

    You've just made the best argument yet for why we build up this map of places and things for ourselves and not rely on t'internet. :blush:

    It's a bit of a tricky one to unravel on the net. Next time you're there, grab a better picture and I'll use that instead. Preferably one with bikes in. :D
