I don't know how to use Google maps for that, just think they are some cracking roads and if you can work those into your routes then it would be ideal

Great roads those

C or D look the best, but rather than doubling back to Dorchester, why not go up From Bridport on the Road to Crewkerne which is fun especially the Tunnel coming out of Beaminster and then go through Yeovil to Sherborne and then onto Sturminster Newton and then out to Blandford and then pick up your orginal loop, Be alot more fun IMHO.

Just an idea ?

F) FRASER's (my adaption) I dont really no any of the road to the east but Fraser says there good, might have to go and check them out.



Poole - Fordingbridge – Shaftesbury – Blandford – Bere Regis - Poole

Distance= 84 Miles
Time= 2hrs 37 Mins
Breaks= Blandford (tesco) if needed,there is a nice little tea and coffee place on the B3081 near compton abbas according to Fraser.

G) FIZZWHEELS (feel free to edit if im off track) Looks good, nice long day of riding.

Poole – Portland – Bridport – Beaminster – Crewkerne - Yeovil - Sherbourne - Sturminster Newton - Blandford - Poole

Distance= 123 miles
Time= 3hrs 58mins
Breaks= Garages: Most major towns plus we will stop on Portland Hill.

Again all times and distances are going by NSL and make no allowances for traffic/numpties.

You have my route suggestion right

I'd suggest that you pick a route that you want to ride and then reccie it yourself and make sure you have your timings right etc and plan in a fuel stop etc etc. I know its extra faff but it'l make the rideout go alot smoother.
