its around 640 miles there and back i believe, and was thinking we could spread it out over 3-5 days If there is any interest i will arrange stops for food, drinks and sleeps Cheers james
Re: summer 2011 coast2coast tripWill be watching with interest James. What time of year are you thinking?
Re: summer 2011 coast2coast tripi was thinking maybe during the summer hols so anyone who has kids could bring them along and make it a family trip? but open to suggestions. maybe also if theres any p&p sites along the way we could stop there.

Re: summer 2011 coast2coast tripWith an early start and say a 7pm finish Id say you would be lucky to cover 100ish miles a day depending on routes and the amount of on/off road stuff.
Re: summer 2011 coast2coast tripit took them 4 days i think and as you say depends on the muddy bits really
