Last Wednesday I did a 455 mile mega ride in just 1 day..
I left a tracker app going on my phone.. Unfortunately my phone died after about 3/4 of the trip but it captured the best parts. Later I transferred to Google maps which you can view below..
From Penrith we ONLY used B roads..
Some of the best roads I have ridden on with truly gorgeous scenery..

Good on ya mate, I love doing days like that too.
Yep I love a good decent ride like that !
I do like a day in the saddle so long it feels good not riding the next day.
Looks a decent day out that.
Thats going some for a UK ride out Speedy :onya:
I've just completed 300mls in two weeks, Brighton; Tunbridge Wells & Whitstable - does that make me 'runner-up'.!...... :rofl2:

That's just "ducking down to the shops" for us here.
Went for a spot of lunch one time down to Margaret River, 650km round trip, nice morning out.
Looking at the route Speedy took I rather suspect he had a lot lower average speed than you lot would.
Now that is my kind of ride, nice one :cheers:
Respect to you sir, I've usually had enough at 200 miles to be honest.
I did about 350 in one hit between home and Tyndrum for the GTR meet earlier this year, but that was mostly motorway and not really fun biking.
There are those days though where you are at one with your bike and content to just keep going, it looks like you saew some nice secenery :)
For some reason the old link doesnt show the route..
Here is is again..
