Lands End / Lizard

[pepperami]

No big deal, but Mr Peppers has his first little trip of the season booked .
14 of April sees me getting to Lands End and Lizard point.

Going to leave ipswich early on the 14th (sunday) and hopefully i will have enough time when I get there to visit both places.
If I get into Cornwall late for some reason, I still have the next day to go where i need to go!
Going to take a nice steady return journey to try and see a bit and stop off where-ever takes my fancy? I dunno? Bodmin?
Was thinking of using the old A30 rather than the A303.

Any thoughts out there?

Stonehenge is on the A303.

Other than that the A30 is not a bad route for a not in a hurry ride.

woodhenge is also just 2 miles from stonehenge, but all the once wooden posts are marked with concrete ones. I wanted to go there when I visited stonehenge, but couldn't find it as I did not have a satnav at the time

Oh yer hotel room booked, cheapish
Result! my missus got me a deal from the Hotel chain she works for? as she knows who to book with.

It only takes me about five minutes to wire in my sat-nav on to my bike as the socket is already in place.

How sad ! a short trip to the west country and I`m all excited?
Must be the thought of shaking off the winter

After Lands End ride the coast road from ST Just to ST Ives, fantastic!

[pepperami]

Thank you for all the info

stupid woman I live with booked me into a place in Liskeard instead of somewhere near lizard
Not to worry as I am now adding another day to the trip and am also going to have some time around Yeovil after doing the Lands End & Lizard thing

God help me if she has to give me directions to an important meeting

I have spent a good few hours at Jamaica Inn & had a drink & a cake in the cafe/restaurant. I have also ridden part of the road from St Just to St Ives, but I started at Sennen (Land's End) and rode to St Just, then a little bit further alongtowards St Ives before heading back to my tent in St Austell. That was a good 9 nights spent in Cornwall

Pretty much all packed up. Going to fit my muffs in the morning. If you don't hear from me I've frozen to death.

Right so I can confirm that I did not die. However I got quite wet towards the end of last night's riding and quite cold at times in my tent when it was very very close to freezing. Impressed with my new sleeping bag and alpkit mat though, considering the conditions.

The St Just to St Ives road was great for views and bends but was covered in salt, mud and gravel so I was taking it very very easy.

Have some photos!

You wouldn't have found the signpost unless you parked up and walked through all the buildings to reach the end of the land. You cannot take vehicles any further than the car park.
