Assuming the weather's nice this weekend, the gf and I will be going for a ride somewhere.... (on the bike! :p )

I Live in cambridge, and am still rather new to the area, but have done Hunstanton, Great Yarmouth, Cromer and the Ace Cafe on recent rides.. anyone got any suggestions for a destination? preferably within 2 hrs riding time... and nice roads of course!

Dunno about nice roads necessarily, but have you been to Duxford air museum yet?

Get up early and go to Oban (try the seafood hut at the ferries) then up to Ballachulish and do a lap of Loch Leven then up to Fort William and stay in one of the many B&B's Thumbs Up

Come to the NABD rally at Alderley Edge in Cheshire! Will take you about 2-3 hours to get there, but then you got bands, comedy tent, cheap beer, strippers, stunt show, custom show, good company and a beautiful location for 2 days before you go home again. Thumbs Up
