HI all, I've done a search here about Hambeer Lane. I thought from DCC map, and TRF map, that we could ride it from Little John's Cross, down to the dog leg and into the valley. But a really old thread said that you can't, and have to start at the bottom of the dog leg. But are you then able to come out of the top...

The bike is always read...
