It's not even that Dave it's only 80 miles and motorway or fast A road all the way after you've wound your way up to the M404, join the M40 at High Wycombe and open the taps. You could average 65-70mph easy, which is 1hr 15. You could do it in an hour on a bike if you want to be rebellious!

How about this for a compromise to keep everyone happy and able to come?

• Meet at the Long Itch at 10am
• Have Brekkie
• Do my route to the Long Itch in reverse, taking us back to Husbands Bosworth and then Market Harborough, the route is recommended by bestbikingroads.com
• Do Mr Spiers Eastern Route either clockwise or anti-clockwise depending on how we are doing for time
• Arrive in Melton Mowbray for lunch time, have a Pork Pie and meet Rusty
• Continue Mr Speirs eastern route in whichever direction we were taking

What do you think Grumpy old men of the Madlands?

Who is going to lead? (not me, my fast days are over, I crashed once too often and grew up)

It takes Phil a long way from home, but at least we'll all be coming to meet him half way in the morning and I know he loves Long Itch breakfast!

(PS: I'd be riding 50 mins purely for the social side of breakfast then turning, round and going back exactly the same way!)

OK, so I'll meet you in Melton Mowbray at 1pm?

Assuming you'll be coming from the south along the B6047 I can meet you at the end of this in Melton at the petrol station (which I think is a Total garage. I know as I've developed an eagle eye for petrol stations with the Tuono).

But happy to meet anywhere in Melton. Like the idea of stuffing my face with pworkpwie

[Mr Speirs]

Hey Russ.

Yeah we'll do the route that way. See you 2moro at the petrol station. If we are early I guess rather than hanging around in the petrol station we'll scoot over the road to the wee park bit.

According to weather forecast this morning, Saturday best day for sun, east coast worst for temp, hope that don't come across to us

Not jealous much

Hope you have fun.
