Just a manglewurzel too far pour moi. Would be 300 miles.

I await the next more northerly rendering with bated wotsit. :(

Cripes, I think I've done all those sections more than a few times. May I suggest a couple of alternatives?

Instead of the well ridden Bampton-South Molton road try the old road through Rackenford between Tiverton and South Molton?????????

A good loop between South Molton and Barnstaple is via North Molton, Withypool, Simonsbath, Blackmoor Gate, Berry Down Cross and Muddiford??????

Why doesn't one person lead one route on one day and then someone else lead the other route on another day ?
