Anyone interested ?
Discovered a couple of decent roads along the coast from Weymouth to Lyme Regis and then from Lyme Regis to Seaton. (only Boring bit is the A35, Bridport to Lyme Regis)

Realise that Saturday morning is a strange time to have a run, but it is the only time this month that I have free to do this.

Depends, I may be doing a slalom event, waiting to see if it's on or not. If not I will be free.

If you can start early and fix in a breakfast stop I may be persuaded.... but jury would have to remain out until details are set.

Plan is to do an early start. The Drive to Seaton is 68miles, so hopefully around 90mins if we are lucky.
After that its upto the crowd that show up, Breakfast ? and return route being up for grabs.
The return route could be as bland as the A35, or as simple as retracing the outbound route.

Ideas ?

I'll tag-on as you come past Bridport, depending on timing.

OK, so who is really up for this and at what Point are you joining.
Beachbum - Start point


What time do people want to start, I'm thinking 08:00, 08:30 latest, or we end up with the roads getting busy.
Start point is up for debate too. Usual place of the Pavillion seems mute as few Bmth based people seem interested.

I'd be joining you on the coast road just above Abbottsbury - there's a handy layby at the viewpoint

I'll tag on just as you leave Weymuff for the coast road (near the army camp).

count me out I'm afraid.

The combination of run length and start time means this would likely lead to most of the morning and I've not got enough brownie points at the moment to take out 25% of my weekend parenting responsibilities.

enjoy wink
