Route to Southampton - SV650.org

Mark_h · 25-08-06, 08:15 PM

I need to get from Fleet to Southampton tomorrow afternoon which gives me an excuse to take the bike for a well needed ride. Obviously it will be caravantastic on most routes. M3 is far too boring. Anyone got any good route suggestions that are not likely to be too busy/boring?

Cheers,
Mark

PS, Bike still popping madly on tickover so open to suggestions for a cure.

Well, it's a bit of a detour, but whenever I go down from London to Southampton, I head for Godalming, then take either the 286 or the 283 south to the 272, which'll take you as far as winchester and is generally less busy and less caravantastic than other routes Nice and sweepy too. Much more fun than the motorway, which I avoid at all costs!

Happy riding. May see you on the route!
