Angus I am not sure, about yellow lines at the bottom but they are resurfacing the road, I was told that people who park on the other side of the yellow lines got a tickets, some one sed that you would think that they where trying to get you in to the cafe car parks but I am sure thats not right If that was the thinking they will have to put some hard core down on there grass car parks,don't you think so.

Gary the Road works should be Finnish by Sunday a call into the,Lord Stones I think might be a good idea.

Thinking about the yellow lines up there, has the,World gone Nuts ?

Yellow lines

Post by ron freeman »

The motorist are to blame.. they used to park there and block the road when they tried to get up in icy conditions. The yellow lines stopped all that so now the 4x4's can get up with no problems :roll:

where they have put them ron is at the very top where there is areas for the cars to get in with ought obstructing the road. so I don't see this being the reson for them and the café does not have sufficient room for good sunny days for walkers mountain bikers etc. I wonder how much the fine is as I can see this coming if its a big xc day and you cant park in the café, we need john miller to get a disabled badge then we can put it in the van :D :D :D

Disabled badge doesn't allow parking on double yellows, that's single yellow
If Acro was easy they'd call it Cross Country
