I am working on a route which I am happy to lead from Market Harborough or Junction 20 of the M1 if that is how most are making there way into Middle Earth. The route I have in mind is nice twisty roads a distance of 100miles  googles time for that 3hrs so add on a couple of tea stops. (that is the route starting from and finishing at Junction 20 of the M1.
So how is it sounding as an event.

I will check the calendar as I would love to make this one and meet some of you. The rideouts always seem to be miles away from me and I work most weekends but this one is fairly local so could be possible  :)

So, 100 miles to Market Harborough, 100 miles zooming about, 100 miles back home. Gonna be a long day! Definitely dependent on weather, don't fancy doing that distance if it's pissing down.

Damn, already committed to another ride that day, must say not keen on the first and last bit, but the middle bit sounds perfect, sounds like beam me up Scottie! :'(

Fun times to be had :)
Won't hear Deadeye moaning about a bit of distance and a little rain.
But then he has taken over Roy of the Rovers place in my heart ;)

If that's a reference to something it has gone completely over my head... or its way beyond my years... or both.

Clearly so am I lol   I always thought Roy of the rovers was Bristol Rovers   but seems he played for Melchester rovers.  Kind of ruined that one  :rolleyes :o

I'm pretty certain I know about 3 footballer names... but I can list every single character from every video game in my dvd stand...

Dead Eye does not do physical sports. Far. Too. Much. Effort.
