Count me in for this one. I'm guessing that you've been reading the latest issue of TWO magazine.

Personally think the roasds in Licolnshire are much better, there are some great twisties. Too many Gatsos on the main routes though so best take the B roads and have some fun if going up there. You could always stay near Cadwell and do a track day, one of the greatest circuits this country has to offer for a motorcyclist.

I like the idea of a long distance run, but can we make the turn around point a health spa or similar rather than a pub. As I think that after that kind of distance I'd need a massage and some attention after being helped off the bike.

Thoughly agree with you chuf. I was born and grew up in the area, get back every three weeks or so.
The road from Cadwell gates to Louth is an absolute gem but many others tucked away.

Snake pass and Matlock are great too though would be very interested in a run that way.
