Wrinklies Chasing the Sun 10 (3rd 4th and 5th June 2024)
« on: November 20, 2023, 11:30:13 am »
Wrinklies 10 who'd have thought?
This post (post number one) is where the details will be when they are ready, so keep your eye on this post.

The plan so far is to start in Minehead and ride a wiggly route around Somerset and stay in Devizes before heading east through the South Downs and on to Kent.


Interested so Far

Rae (raesewell)
Tom (Tom K1300s)
Bob
Ady (Ady00)
Philippe (Sudolea) Possible
Alan (alancu) Possible

Route 1 Click Here for Google Maps This is just a rough idea and not the exact route.

Route 2
Click Here for Google Map Again not the exact route.

I will add hotel links soon.

Floop-dee-doop! The south and I can't make it! I'm doing the Old Gits and according to the above we conflict so I shall miss it I'm afraid :(.

If you need/would like any rubbish opinions on roads around my area my consulting fees are £0 :).

Rae, thanks again for taking the lead on this. Would really love to join again this year but have some other stuff happening in June that I need to sort out dates for and it might well clash. Can you put me down as a possible, thanks!

The A369 up to Dunster is an amazing road.

The A369 is good up to the end of May before the hoiliday vans hit it, people forget about the A399, B3223, B3358, A361, Kinsford Hill, Goodleigh Road, Ash Lane (over the top),
The A39 is the same as the A399 great out of the holiday season.'

No wonder I couldn't find the A369 coz it's the A396  :azn: It's part of my route along with the A361. That's 2 of those roads ticked off  ;D
