    Unless you like motorways I would get to oxford then do the A420, A350, A303, A30 etc etc.

    If I was you two, I'd meet up in Waltham then go A303, A354, A35. Great bike roads for A series ones.

    With the Fox driving, it's what kind of bush you end up in is the question.

    I think this may be the point you left me last year, if anyone can remember the route you took?
    I think you guys took the A358 off that roundabout and I went straight over and followed the 303
    If I'm right and your taking the same route could we try and meet around there

    Without doubt, the quickest route for you, Martin. if you want to ease your leg, is straight down the A303 to Exeter as it ends about 3 miles from the hotel. It's just that, for me, the 303 isn't the fun on the bike that it's generally considered and the longer loop down through Dorset is a lot prettier.

    I did 303 last year and struggled with the distance so I don't want to make it any longer, or I may have to try and get a Harley like Giv :eek:
