No not the distillery but the town itself. I had not heard about the parking at the cat and fiddle. When I was much younger we used to ride up the the Cat and Fiddle just to enjoy the bends, have a drink then enjoy them again. Now that road is covered by average speed cameras not much fun when you have to check your Speed all the time.
ANPR cameras are a pain. They do not differentiate between cars and bikes. If you do not see the signs then you are stuffed as soon as you enter the car park even if you turn around and leave straight away.
Who says the world is getting better!
I did those bends in 2019, on my last trip to uk. From memory the ANPR average speed cameras were set at 50mph, which was ok if you never exceeded 50mph even on the straights and tried to maintain 50mph around ALL the bends 😆
Alternatively you could do 40mph on the straights and 60mph around the bends
For the cat and fiddle distillery the car park is just another income stream, deliberately arranged to con people out of a 100 quid….it’s sad the government gives access to the govt car/address database to privately owned companies, and therefore allow that sort of rort to carry on.
I drove nearly over 4000 miles around the uk in april/may just gone and I am somewhat amazed not to get other letters in the post about speeding, parking, no right turns, one way streets, restricted access streets you name it! Cameras everywhere…the computers police the roads not the actual police was my impression.
I did my best to keep to the speed limits but in 20 miles you might get a dozen different speed limit signs and all it takes is to miss one sign and zoom past the camera and you get a “letter”.
