The commute took about 3-4 hours depending on weather/traffic. A34, M5, M6, M55 route home. Horrid in winter, but a blessing in the summer.
It's that commuting back home which really ended my 17 year career. I just couldn't see my kids growing up. Now they're all growd up, got a bit more freedom and can stretch my legs again a little.
Really. Haha small world a !!
I'm going to start the commute by bike in Feb, hopefully the weather will be abit nicer and get home alot quicker. John McGuinness managed 236 miles in 1 hour, 45 minutes see how I get on .. lol
Dunno how you managed 4 hours riding in winter. ..
Yeah that's what I don't want to miss, got a 5 and 7 year old. Both just get upset every Sunday it's a horrible drive back to camp.
