Hoggs Posted April 20, 2017 Author Share Posted April 20, 2017 Ok I've planned a stop 10 miles before the meet for petrol .I've set myself a 70 mile stint without a stop, I'm a soft arse I can't normally do more than an hour without one goodand stop if needed! nothing wrong with being a soft arse riding tired is a lot worse!!

Westbeef Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I will! there's plenty of lay-bys on the A1 so if I'm struggling I'll have a 5 min stop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how to upload a map so I'll just write a list of place names and you'll have to use some imagination. Ollerton - Caunton - Southwell - Lowdham - Radcliffe on Trent - Cotgrave - A606 to Melton Mowbray and then on the Oakham and the pub.

Westbeef Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 I'm stopping at the Ram Jam petrol station I could meet you Rach but that makes my wholeJourney 4 hours and ill probably be fooked when I arrive. I want to save myself for the ride out I think I'll take the more direct route for getting there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
