Top retro motoring road in Leicestershire  Went to Market Harborough for the RDK meet last night, and I've decided the road that way is AWESOME. The B6047 between Tilton on the Hill and Market Harborough AWESOME at night  Just had to share  My weapon for the route is in readers rides |

Know the road very well - all those ups and downs are so cool. I did that road last year in the 944 - scared the bejesus out of me Did you ground the Mini at any point in the dips? |

 I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people I don't like. |
