ABR East Coast Weekender Route Files

Post by Bryn »

Following on from last issue's ride of the South and South East coast of the UK, in issue 35 of Adventure Bike Rider we continued our circumnavigation by riding up the East coast from Orfordness to Staiths. The attached gpx file will take you as near as damnit to the route we rode, but feel free to venture off at your leisure. Essentially, keep the sea on your right and you're heading in the right direction.

The ride is doable over a weekend, and there are plenty of accommodation options at the start, mid-way point (we used Hull), and finish. The coast of Norfolk isn't an area that springs to mind when you think of motorcycling destinations, but the road from Cromer to King's Lynn is great, and there are so many interesting things to see and explore along the way.

We've plotted the route out so that you can download it, stick it in your SatNav and ride it. Simply right click on the attachment below called 'ABR and TomTom route files - East Coast.gpx' and choose 'Save Link As', once you've saved it to your computer load it into your SatNav as per the manufacturers instructions and get riding! Please bear in mind that we urge you to venture off this route and stick to the coastal roads as much as possible. The gpx. file will give you a good guide of where you should head, but the joy is in exploring the area.

For your convenience, you'll notice that there are two files to download below, one which will have you start in the north, and one starting in the south.
