You'll enjoy the run in to the circuit from there, but watch out for the speed humps if you come on the main road through Uppingham... cross country on C roads from Morcott via the Welland Valley to Caldecott (and under the famous Harringworth viaduct) is a decent alternative route wink

If you go the way Pupp says mind if i join you on saturday morning? you'll be passing by the end of my road! He's right about the speed bumps in Uppingham - only just worked out how to get the chim over safely!

No problem at all. Mrs NTEL and I will be leaving the Lodge at about 8.00am and travelling the route that Pupp suggested. I think you will hear us coming winkshoot

Fantastic!

Beware when you come back from Rockingham to Morcott - as you go down the hill from Corby into Rockingham village there's a speed camera just round the corner as you enter the 30mph zone - it's nasty!

No probs. Are you up for a beer? I believe there is a pub within about 300 yards of the lodge.

Yeah could be up for a beer. I will have the missus with me though. Although she has got right into TVR's. Even got personalised T-shirts made for the weekend! biggrin

Give me a call when you get there and we can sort something out.
