The A537 from Buxton to Macclesfield – more commonly known as the Cat and Fiddle road – is a mecca for keen motorcyclists. It’s named after the inn – the second highest public house in England – which sits on the border between Cheshire and Derbyshire. That the Cat and Fiddle is often referred to as one of the UK’s most dangerous roads doesn’t deter bikers who flock to the 11.5-mile ribbon of tarmac every high day and holiday. For years, the Cat and Fiddle road was known as the best riding road in England, but a blanket 50mph speed limit and a succession of average speed cameras has put paid to antisocial riding. Drastic measures needed to be taken, with statistics released a decade ago suggesting that motorcyclists accounted for 2% of traffic on the road, but 75% of deaths and serious injuries.
