I'd be up for that. 350 miles round trip for me - meander down the east cost, night in a nice hotel then back up the middle home...

Which route would you take to do 350 miles to Haltwhistle.

ROUND trip - 200 miles down the east coast with a couple of diversions to some coastal towns and villages, then 150 miles back up the A68...

Haltwhistle to Dunsop Bridge is just over 100 miles in each direction, a riding time of approx. 2.5 hours each way.

I was using the mileage to and from Haltwhistle from my house...

Sorry for any misunderstanding, the idea of the map/routes was to see if it's practical to ride between the two points in one day, via two different routes, avoiding the M6, apart from two small sections around Lancaster & Penrith.

Even better, two nights in a nice hotel with a wee ride out to Dunsop Bridge in the middle :enjoying:

My thoughts exactly, too.

Dunsop Bridge in Lancashire claims to be the centre of Great Britain and is marked with a famous phone box.

This is the commemorative plaque on the 100,000th BT telephone box at Dunsop Bridge.



(The Centre of GB is actually the centre of the British Isles.)

...so, does that mean it's also the centre of the universe  - in which case..... :vader:  might want a word with you.
