BikerMooFromMars Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 It's a shame I can't bike there with ya, I'm EXCEPTIONAL at getting lost when I reach London ! It's A10 thru Royston, then pretty much just follow the signs. Then when you get to the North Circular, get horrebdously lost (signposting is terrible...or at least was to SE London and Blackwall Tunnel). Simples!

christoph93 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Shame I wouldn't be able to keep up with you guys.... NEED A BIGGER BIKE lol. Happy riding though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonniebird Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Yeah, don't want to go down the A1 it's too boring. Just noticed it's the Ally Pally bike show his weekend too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nman1 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Any ideas on a non A1 route then ???? take in a bit of countryside would be better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonniebird Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 As Moo said, the A10 would be betterWe could also do country roads either side of the A1 - or between the A10 and the A1. I know the roads down to Baldock ish but may have to research south of that - Baldock, Hitchin, St. Albans, Watford and pick up the M1 for the last bit? You don't end up with a big chunk of the North circular that way. It would take quite a while though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holliday675 Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 Ill take a look on google maps or RAC route planner later see if I can see anything other than straight A1 lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terryr555 Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I used to work at park royal, right near the cafe so know it and which ever way you skin it, getting in the last 20 miles or so is a bit crap.....All being well, we will be at the marina ready to hit straight south, is that ok sea blue?, I can't see a route to come west first....If all is not well I'll know by sat night and will postCheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holliday675 Posted September 6, 2013 Author Share Posted September 6, 2013 ok so i cant make head nor tail of this so if someone wants to check it then happy days http://www.rac.co.uk/route-planner/post code for the ace cafe is NW10 7UD.... it has come up with three different routes, route one is a boring run down the A1 taking 1hr 18 mins estimate........ route 2 looks like it cuts across country past bedford then joining the M1 time estimate 1hr 23 mins.... route 3 looks like it starts twisty but joins the A1 pretty quick time estimate 1hr 28 mins.......All meet back up at the north circular... but i'm not sure what the best one to take is..... yes i'm pretty clueless at directions..... it doesn't look like there is a straight forward route from peterborough, as when i typed in the start point as peterborough it took me back to the A1 heading huntigndon way....
