As title suggests, a bimble around some sweepy Lincs roads with one eye on a future Lincs run. Can't commit to a full blown run yet, so what with the inclement weather of late I went for a 'blow the cobwebs' away blast today and wondered if anyone fancied joining me on Sunday March 16th? Meet here, maps.google.co.uk/maps?expflags=enable_star_based_justifications:true&ie=UTF8&cid=6343713167401151557&q=Caenby+Corner+Garage&iwloc=A&gl=GB&hl=en_uk. For breakfast/fuel with a view to head off into the Lincs countryside at 10.30 am. Bimble envisaged to be about 120/130 miles finishing in Newark for roughly 4.00 pm. Post up, or just turn up on the day, would be nice to have some company for the ride. Regards, Trev. Edit, feckin google maps! The pin is actually the garage, cafe is t'other side of the roundabout, you can't miss it. ( i may regret that comment :

Stop faffing around and book a proper run instead of a practice bimble.

That would be ideal, the sofa I mean, not the camping, March is not a good time to go camping anyhow we will see how it goes, still not sure I can afford the time!
