Where to go for a test ride.. - SV650.org

I've booked a test ride at west london suzuki in Feltham. Not an area I know well. The guys there seem very good and are lending me a bike for as long as I want (within reason). What'd be a good route for a couple of hours to take in some decent swoopy roads?

I'd head out to staines and over to the A30 passed Egham,
down to Viginia waters and take the A329 to north Ascot
then up the A332 through Windsor great park,
through Windsor and take the A308 towards Maidenhead,
turn right onto the A330 and follow to just beyond the Winkfield turning,
then take the B3034 across the A332 and turn left onto the B383,
that will lead you back to the A329 (turn left onto it)
then at the end turn left back towards Egham, A30 passed staines,
A315 back into Felthem.

Job done, that's about 50 miles or so, some nice twisties and nsome blat roads.

enjoy.

Cheers Mark.

When is it Alex, you're on my doorstep and I know the guys well. I may be able to meet you there and take you through a few "half decent" roads....

And Mark, that's sort of my test route...
