Sorry super team, i was wavering and now I've gained some responsibilities near home that means I need to be home every day for the next while.

That's a shame. Next year!

If not before! I'm eager to see how my MPGs suffer when I start trying to move at pace again hehe.

OK peeps I have been on a reconnaissance ride to the route 1 lunch stop. I will be changing this lunch stop, the roads around it are atrocious and from one or two reviews I have read the staff are not very friendly. The car par was good though  :D. I'll have a scout around and come up with a suitable alternative. I will update the route links when I have found the alternative.

I am having to rethink route 2, The Triumph Experience where we were due to stop for coffee is closed and shows no signs of opening soon. A new coffee stop and a rejigged lunch stop are on the cards. I'll let you know when I have finished the route.
Post #1 is down for a while.

I think I have it sorted now, the problem being most places don't want to take five singles taking up five tables. Although midweek at 2 ish I have managed to negotiate us some tables for the Tuesday and the Wednesday. I just need to ring and confirm now.

Post #1 is now live again.

Thanks again for your continued efforts Rae.
