Will be adding more content to the forum tonight, hopefully
Just shown Simon most of the route, and he's made the very valid point that the Dales, Peaks and Pennines will never be the same again after we've done this. So are we SURE we really want to go?
Too bleeding right we are
You would not believe the roads that have been sacrificed. If I were to show you some pics of the one's we're NOT doing you'd think I'd gone mad...
...until you see what they're being replaced with
Most (if not all) of the route details will be up there by the end of this evening if all goes to plan. If you're going and you cannot see the Route Details thread please PM me (via the other forum) and I'll sort out your access.

T-shirts are ongoing
We're having a different coloured one for each day, with the date, and a map of the day's route on the back (For when Al gets lost)
Si's gonna get some prices together, I'll provide the artwork once the routes are finalised.
Do we want nice quality ones that we can wear again in the future, or cheap and cheerful just to get us through the day?

Basic route summaries added.
Fuel bill calcualted...
Based on 15 mpg in town / twisties and 25mpg on m/ways and major roads
At £1.10 / litre
cough
£610
So, I've changed my mind.
I don't want to go.
It's ridiculous.
The expense is unjustifiable
I mean, it's not like it's the trip of a lifetime with me mates or owt...
Bring it on!

Remember, you won't be paying £1.10 a litre in Europe
Actually, just had a looksee and it's up to 96p a litre in France these days Diesel is better at 87p
