hey guys, going on holiday in september for a week down in torquay... looking for a good run down there from radcliffe near bury if anyone knows one... if anyones up for a ride down as well feel free to tag along but ill have to leave you when we get there so gonna be getting your own way back. should be a good ride down weather permitting (althou knowing my luck it will p*ss it down) gonna have to look at timing for it properly but not wanting a motorway run if i can avoid it
Head down through Wales then down the coast its a great run ive done it twice. If you want a route im more than happy to post and it includes the crossgates road.
