I was wondering if between everyone on here we could compile our own Top Ten Biking Roads of Britain? Or maybe you can each come up with your own 10. You might include some of your local ones if you think they deserve a spot high up on the list.
Obvious ones might include:
Cat & Fiddle road, Peak District
Snake Pass, Peak District
A87, Invergarry to Kyle of Loch Alsh (although you could probably carry on all the way to Portree and still add some really good bits).
Just about anything in mid Wales - anybody care to choose a favourite from this excellent biking area?
As well as giving you something to do on the long winter evenings, I thought it might be a help to those of us who like to get a bit further afield on our ride outs, or indeed help folk to plan a UK tour. Include thoughts about the scenery encountered, maybe interesting places to visit and good cafes/rest stops to be had along the way.
Don't worry if you can't come up with ten - just say what road/s you particularly love to ride and why.
