Cheap weekend away?
 

So i've used up all my holiday days at work but i'd still like to get away on the bike for a weekend somewhere, I'm just not sure where!
Can anyone reccomend a destination that's good for riding in, has nice scenery and is close(ish) to Oxford? I was thinking South Wales perhaps? I'm hoping wherever I can go I can find a cheap hostel or B+B for a couple of nights and get lots of riding done in the day.
Any ideas? :confused:

Hay on Wye, gives you access to lots of scenery and nice roads. You can give yourself a scenic run at it from Oxford and as they have the book festival you should be able to find plenty of B+B accomodation.

what i always thought would be fun, is just making sure i had enough money and just getting on the bike and going a direction and seeing where i end up at the end on the day, chances are there will be a B&B or hotel local to where you end up.

well thats what i would do anyway. ;)

Avoid Wales, it's full of welsh people and things that are laughingly refered to as policemen

just buy me beer and I'm 100% yours... now what was the question...

That's one of my fav ways. I've even done it without any kit, set off for a ride which has gone on a bit longer than anticipated, and gone and bought a toothbrush, jockeys etc.

South Shropshire:cool: Anywhere south of Shrewsbury is good, the area around Ludlow is simply fantastic.

just follow the sunshine

Cotswalds are pretty and some nice roads too but i doubt you'd find cheapish B&Bs, can be a bit pricey at times.

When you planning on getting away?

If its next weekend, may I suggest Essex?
