Should the RTTB run this Sunday or wait until next week ?

Clarkson did it the other way around - sunset to sunrise, so driving all night from west to east.

What a manic and brilliant idea. A real rite-of-passage.
However, the trip itself is close to 450 miles. Also need to get to Penzance, and get back from Lowestoft. So that will mean 900 !!!! b-(
Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?

Get up to Lowestoft, check out the English heritage of Justin Hawkins parents house...(they'll be doing it one day, the spandex king rules :-s ) B&B or camp what ever people decide, then set out crack of dawn as per the RTTB ride, then head to Penzance. Plan it properly, we could have B&B sorted for us near Lands end for the night before a bimble home the next day...
Who's up for it??!!!!!! Rock n Roll... I'm already smiling about this. Think of the cake shops one could find along the way to.
