Ah I said the peaks as in peak districk not the Pennines. We never think about headding north, I guess we really should at some point but I'll keep that place in mind if we do
The Cotswold's are like Norfolk, but with money. Still a lot of uncles and aunties are sisters and brothers there
Haha I Live in the Cotswolds and it is not like Norfolk. Norfolk is the only place that Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day are the same thing.
Must admit i found it very bumpy and dippy even on my off road bike and I don't live any where near their.
Didn't find it bumpy at all really. Acidentally ended up on a single track back lane at one point... that was bumpy. some of the roads are in the process of being resurfaced which was a bit of a bitch but they are making an effort to take some of the bumps out I guess. It is indeed awesome I was totally fine until my way back, hit just north of Stoke and the heavens just opened. I was 20 mins from home so I just powered through and didn't bother to get the waterproofs out. Awesome day out all in all. Always nice to go somewhere different. I can also highly recommend Russell's Fish & Chips in Broadway but because its the cotswolds we did have to pay 5 times the price or a regular chippy. Thanks to everyone for chipping in with advice. made for good day out.
Riding round cleeve hill Is Fun except when the pensioners from The home decide To pull out in front of you in their Honda jazz’s
Genrally we tried to follow it but I had to try and do it from memory and general sense of direciton as couldn't find a suitable sat nav app in time to load my route into. I'll do an actual later on this evening and post it for you.
So this was my overall trip: And this is a closeup of the cotswolds section: The section down to Chipping Norton from around Upper Tysoe was a proper back road so i'd advise against that part. I also put in avoid motorways on google maps navigation on the way home which was a little better than sitting at 50 for ages on the M6 through all the everlasting roadworks.
