Where do you go when you don't know where to go?

i have never been anywhere i dont know, i always do the same boring routes on my own just to blow the cobwebs off. speaking as a satnav or die man, i would get very very lost if i went somewhere i didnt know lol

Just take alternate left and righs and see where I end up. Not too far these days unlike the past when I have gone off for a ride and been gone days even ended up in Glasgow once.

Most of the time, i just head for work, but as i work 80 miles away in Frimley i can choose loads of ways to get here. Anyway it's 12, the sun is shining, i'm bored stiff, i'm bugging out the long way home over the plain ;D

I think the ride from Devizes, Malb, hungerford, Newbury, up through Andover way is LOVELY and its mostly the nice twisty A road

I usually start off with a rough idea of which direction to go in and take it from there, avoiding towns and especially cities and busy A roads.

Another good route is home to Trowbridge Tesco's, get a bottle of wine and a packet of fags stuff them down the front of my jacket and then home ;D

Otherwise just ride, turn off and wait until we see somewhere we know to make our way back from.

Wrong quote BB, you wanted the Tesco's one. Every little helps ;D

Usualy I take a familiar bit of twisty road working on my lines in a safe manner.Sometimes I go farther within the limits of my tank but always enjoy the thrill of riding for its' own intoxicating pleasure! On a sunny day I will fill up and cruise off anywhere where the road may take me.Always enjoying the freedom of the open road! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
