You're then not much over an hour from the site, so you can kick back and relax.
I just took a look at the map, and from the Ace we could go out on the A40, and pick up the A413 all the way to Towcester, then pick up the M1 through the midlands to Derby.

This is starting to sound like a nice day's riding for us slow folks. Just need to plan meal stops and petrol.
