TVR post covid run ?
Discussion
Anyone interested in helping me organise a South West run (I've never been there)
I'm happy to sort the route out but will need some help/advice on hotels and lunch stops -may depend on how many wish to join.
Looking as a 3 day run starting south of Birmingham then 'probably'
1st Day - directly south (no motorway, no/little dual carriageway) to Stonehenge then Haynes Motor museum and finally Yeovil.
2nd Day - generally meandering from Yeovil over Dartmoor to Okehampton
3rd Day - Okehampton to Lynmouth then finish at the Cheddar Gorge.
