Oh the green green grass of home 😍

It's Wales. I'm guessing about 800 miles. Give or take a couple of hundred.

Well done FD, The route is exactly 1000miles which follows our border very closely land,river or sea. A good challenge for a summer weekend I think, forget about trying to do it Iron Butt style as it includes way to many little roads. If anyone wants the GPX and take up the challenge I'll post it up, would possibly make a good fundraising challenge.

Certainly looks like it. Got to love the Welsh danger zones

It was the Sunday before lockdown. The Oasis cafe at Abergavenny looked like this...

And the world and his wife had gone to Pen y fan so Terry's was out of the question. What else you gonna do?

If I can't have a bit of bacon on a Sunday then they might as well shoot me / blow me up

The Steel Horse cafe was rammed last weekend before lockdown; I hope these businesses we rely on can weather the storm
