Default Epic drive tonight

Well, epic might be overstating things, but I had a great drive tonight. The roads were very clear allowing lots of fun. I was just exploring really and 'discovered' a new route which could form part of a Ricky-Towcester run.

Back roads to Hemel, then the A4146 Leighton Buzzard road, then the A418 to Wing, and a little sub B road to the B4032 at Stewkley and following that to Winslow, then I took the A413 home via Chequers.

Highly recommended, although my car looks like I drove it through a moth farm right now!

Thanks Neil,

It was just kind of an explore really, I was going to do the A4146 to Dagnall, and then up to Ashridge but I saw a Volvo Estate head up that way ahead of me so pressed on towards LB, and then went exploring from there, I just aimed for the A413 really!

What was most amazing was the total lack of traffic last night, even on the A roads. Even when some slower moving traffic was encountered, there were ample overtaking opportunities due to there being nothing coming the other way. I can't believe it's always like that up there...???

Does PH = Pistonheads?
