So yeah, I am going to be leading this ride-out apparently, thanks to TonyK for volunteering me! I don't actually know what route Phil had in mind. Did he make it on googlemaps? I have a couple of ideas myself anyway, involving fish hill and the b4011 etc etc. I might make a route up myself and see how you like it. For those of you whining about it, might I suggest a 2-3 hour ride, ending in a nice pub that does great food? I know several
Also, in terms of speed and losing people, I will be doing the mirrors thing, and waiting at confusing places so people behind me know what to do. I shall also not be exceeding 100mph on the straights, but will not be going under 60mph on the bends .

My 140 on the straights and 20 in the bends should work out perfectly then.

Here is a test route, what do you reckon? First half is really nice twisty roads, second half is an A road blast to get to Fish hill and back, ending in the Prince of Wales Pub which does excellent home-cooked food. If it is a bit long, then we can cut out Fish hill, as it is a little out of the way.
