Saturday 12th is good for me as well, i have found a route up there avoiding m roads so all good my end, plus it will be good to have a ride out with other maxi owners.

Michael: Yup I get slightly improved mileage and better running I worked out that its fractionally cheaper than regular

When I did my test run I got to what I think of as the mid point, Duxford, at 13:00 so for me that's good for a lunch stop. But if anyone needs to 'DUCK' out at that point its perfect because of access

Can I ask, is the route on the map, clockwise or anticlockwise, as I might be popping in to see my sister on that saturday in stevenage so could do a meet up and peel off early.

[Funkycowie]

Clockwise. If the run goes well and people like it I might repeat it the other way at a later date

OK darling, put me down as a probable. I'll peel off at Watton at Stone for Stevenage...if That's ok This would take my 3 and a bit year old Honda past the 1400 mile mark

Shame on you Terry with such low mileage. My Integra is just three and a bit months old and already showing 2400 miles.

I know, I know, I dont understand it....I have all the intentions of going for a ride and the invisible magnet draws me to the car or van. I dont want to let the scooter down so today i rode it to the gym...all 2 miles....there and back. now I have a sore bum, doing such long distances..

[Funkycowie]

I have three stop points plotted now between the start and finish so can have rest/potty stops if required... Pearce's Farm Shop off the A10, Duxford McD's/Shell Petrol Station and Thaxted.
