On another note, with this being pinned, I think it gets less viewing. I know I often over look items that have been pinned.

if we go to skeggy the 60 miles will turn to at least 120 miles but i need some help with route ideas..
as for the date i need people to say they can make it to specify the best date if more people can make it on a different day then it will change after discussion.

Saying that tho, i think the easiest thing to do is fully plan the route with stops and everything incorporated then poll a date..

would recomend that you stick to roads you Know for your route and google has a good feature in the maps part for planning routes

Best bet I reckon. You'll have a definative mileage then too.

As Smudge says, roads you know might be best unless they are all major A roads. Roads should be getting a bit quieter as autumn sets in.

Talking Re: Big ride out

i think this will be the Easiest way to get this to happen so thats what ill do, so as of now the BIG ride out is not happening on the 22nd
what i will do is plan step by step and post updates over the next couple of weeks then poll a date.

Litrally any ideas or suggestions would be great folks.. so please dont be shy
im looking from Matlock to Skegness ( A - B ) and the route between is where it all happens.

If you want a break from main roads, turn off at Wragby (or at Baumber) from the A158 for Bardney. Once you get to Bardney, head towards Horncastle, this puts you back on the A158.These roads are fairly twisty and mostly well surfaced. Been round there today actually.
