Default Nice roads in Lincs

Hi Guys,
as it is a beautiful day today, I decided to go to skegness on the bike. The run is about 90 miles each way for me from south sheffield, and the lincolnshire roads are superb. Nice A roads, nice bends with excellent road surfaces.
Also there are a few roundabouts which are clean and a better rider would have had their pegs down several times..

As someone who isn't particularly confident in my cornering at speed this run has given me a boost as the veriety and smoothness of the bends mostly with superb visability, you can see the exit and set your self up in loads of time.

As most people know this area is flat as a pancake, so you can get a bit of prevailaing wind, but overall an excellent day.

At times I was the only vehicle on the road this morning, Talk about biking freedom.

I saw lots of bikes today but no SVs

There is a manned toll bridge and it's 15p for abike!

That'll be Dunham bridge on the A57

Not too good over here though if you fancy some hill climbing

Skeggy is a giggle though and I think that there is a local by-law that says you must have Fish & Chips
