I might add, I will not be going anywhere near a motorway, instead consulting my intuition and Bartholomew maps for routes. Beats me why anybody would take a motorway, especially when the North up to Scotland boasts some of the most impressive scenery in the Kingdom.

Actually Google doesn't help my point, because it takes me up the a1m... But my point still stands

Unless we are up for a truly shite gear style race to the north, bike vs car vs train, I'm sticking to the motorways and just getting there! Meeting up with people on the way if available.

 

Tbh daz, if you want I could drive up to yours Thursday and convoy up with the ASMM during Friday if you want and if I can kip on your sofa?

[Guest Hooli]

I'd use motorways at least till past Leeds, then the scenery gets better.

[beko1987]

I want to be up north (which to me is probably Derby) by 4pm, then have dinner etc and a big poo then carry on when it's quiet again

[Guest Hooli]

I'd try to get a bit further, the M1 past Derby is a hell of speed cameras & variable limits. It's also infested with fucknuggets.

[Guest]

A68. Watch the cameras though..

 

Pencil me in as a provisional pleeze.

To be honest, the M6/M74 offers some spectacular scenery even from motorway.

Maybe the first 10 or 15 times... and better in daylight!

I've just looked and between SFBg and SF I should be doing 3700 miles (not including the flight).

Mate of course you are welcome to do that. No problems at all.

alcyonecorp. and I had a wonderful run down the M6 from Carlisle to the M61 at dusk last year. The views are pretty good on a nice day.

 

I'm happy to do whatever if there's a convoy going, maybe there should be a Northern Powerhouse meeting point where we can join on to anyone coming from further south.

Also I am a buffoon who can't tell Friday from Saturday.

[puddlethumper]

Saabnut, you must have bits made of a ferrous material !

 

Thirty shiters of dubious character turning up in chod !

 

If it was me, I'd be thinking of running away.

[Guest Hooli]

I'll be turning up ON chod, june is bike season.

I might add, I will not be going anywhere near a motorway, instead consulting my intuition and Bartholomew maps for routes. Beats me why anybody would take a motorway, especially when the North up to Scotland boasts some of the most impressive scenery in the Kingdom.

Because some of us hate driving through towns or behind arseholes on country roads meaning that at best you avetage about 35mph,and there's a fuck of a lot of miles between here and there, that's why. Occasionally I'll take the B7076/7078 alongside the A74(M) but most of the time I just need to get somewhere.

Also, if someone installed motorway just north of Fort Bill until about Loch Lochy that would be grand, because that bit of the Highlands is grim to look at.

[Squire_Dawson]

I did say the North up to Scotland. Speed is near the bottom on my list of priorities.

Sometimes the B7076/8 can be quicker than the motrway if it's cunted in some way or another

I was just going to say, while I remember, that Alford transport museum is hosting an event called TankFest on I think the 10th of June.

 

So, y'know, if we're stuck for something to do I'm sure they'd appreciate* a bright yellow double decker full of nutters turning up.

They're a Transport Museum. Of course they'd be thrilled.

[AnthonyG]

Is there a bed & breakfast/pub that does rooms/hotel in the vicinity? I’m not bothered about the journey but I’m not sleeping in the rear seat of a Jaguar XF for 2-3 nights.

 

Obv when I say ‘vicinity’ I mean 30 mins drive or whatever is reasonable in that part of the world.
