I have a bit of a dilema going on at the moment!
My work has decided to send me at short notice down to Lincolnshire in Englandshire, in fact it was such short notice that I am already there.!!:smt013
As I had to bring my uniform clothes etc due to the fact that i'm going to be there for about 8 weeks I had to come down in my car.
The dilema I have is that I am bored already at night due to the really bad accommodation provided and have noticed that the roads are quite good apart from all the speed cameras.
I am hoping to get home some weekends to see my family but on the weekends I am stuck here I am thinking about bringing my bike down so I can have some fun on these roads.
Only problem I have is getting home to get my bike as I need my car here as well.
So do I go home this weekend and get my bike or not?
Don't know how to set up a poll for your opinions!!

Lincolnshire certainly has some super roads. As we found out when we went mid July. Only wish I'd been riding me bike, and not Peg, I had to drive behind my own bike and watch it get flung all over the place!
Get yer bike :-)
+1 on diz! you know the women speak sense!!

Go get your bike!!!
Yeah great for riding round here. If you have a Wednesday night free go to Willingham Woods near Market Rasen, there'll be loads of bikers for you to share a cupper with.
I hear there's a good train service on the east coast line to Scotland:D
What are you waiting for:p

Good idea Ed. Millions of bikers in Lincs, I don't think they let you in if you don't have a bike licence. Look up Lincolnshire Bike Nights website for regular Weds meets as well as Willy woods etc. The roads do claim a lot of lives though for some reason. Whereabouts are you?

We have a 'Road of Death' in Shropshire too - many on here have ridden it, it's the Corvedale road. Whilst fatalities aren't funny, all the signs on the Corvedale road have become a bit of a joke.
