Worthing?



How about Sittingbourne, you can spend the fortnight fixing all/some of the bits on my bike you keep kindly pointing out.  You can camp in my garden for free, I'll even make you a tea and bacon sandwich in the morning........

Isn't that going to be a bit soggy?  :\

:lol      not planning on  going east, near or far....... :lol

Leaving shortly and Iam heading north, not sure where but hope to do at least 250/300 miles today,which should get me somewhere near the yorkshire dales, or there abouts........really want to get a bit further today, but thats probably about my limit before the old body starts to complain, going to jump on the motorway for the first 100/150 just to eat the miles, stop for a late breakfast and then find some decent roads 

no real plans/route but I do have a couple of places I will be visiting.will try to update as I go but relying on wifi so might be a bit intermittent. ?...suggestions welcome....go on nows your chance to tell me where to go  :lol

To all you foccers going to work ...............have a nice day    :pokefun

[nick crisp]

Probably too late, but get yourself to Settle, go up to Hawes, then Thwaite, Keld, Kirkby Stephen, Brough, Middleton-in-Teesdale, Alston. Great roads. PM incoming. I've used a campsite just on the outskirts of Hawes which was ok; unfortunate it's still school holidays though.

Jumped on the M1 this morning just so I could laugh at everyone going to work.. :lol....managed 150 miles .bored out of my tiny mind  :\....exit 29 took me to chesterfield and a quick look at the twister steeple....didn't want to go anywhere near manchester or sheffield so rode through the peak district, baslow, A623 chapel-en-firth, glossop, holme moss, holmfirth.....got a bit messy then, got tied up in the  traffic around huddersfield/halifax only had a small scale map which didn't show the back roads, got a bigger scale one now  :thumbup.........out to keighley and onto A629 to skipton, gateway to the dales.......where I am now having something to eat before findind a campsite in a small village with a friendly pub.....

Great minds mr trimmer....thats the route iam just about to take....

A view from the tent....

[unfazed]

That's handy Red pitching the tent, right next to the Red Light district  :lol

That one in the picture is giving you the eye and looking very sheepish  :lol

[dazza]

We want to see a picture of the tent. Kitcrazy has started a competition to see who can fit in the smallest one  :lol

[celticdog]

Good pics Red, enjoy the lake district, stick to the back roads avoid the M6. Keep heading north, you'll soon experience the joy that is Dumfries & Galloway. Have fun fella
