I was driving along the A7 south and west of Hawick yesterday afternoon and went past the end of a steep private access road to a windfarm, which was cut into the side of the hill - south side of the A7. It looked as though it had real potential for a quick race without needing to close a public road. Does anybody watching this forum know where I mean and if so could they post up with a map reference so that we can have a better look?
Thanks

If it's new, it probably won't be on Google maps or satellite pictures. Any chance you might be able to log the track on a gps logger so we can stick it into cartiesim?

team rooket also spotted a couple of options at a new wind farm either side of the M74. Access roads both side of the 74 are tarmac and look good and fast. I am going to contact the company responsible soon and we intend to have a look at some point. Unfortunately I have no more details, but if its a goer you lot will know.
