Okay, so with the upcoming Peaks meet...
I thought, since I am going up north, I wonder how long it would take me to pop up to Edinburgh to visit my family.

Then as I scrolled the map along. And then scrolled some more... and some more, and more yet...
I zoomed out. And for the first time, realised just how far south nottinham etc. is!!!

And more importantly... how LITTLE there is up the north of England.
You get to about Leeds, and then there is nothing for 200 miles!
Apart from Sunderland tucked away in the corner half way up...

Okay, you have carlisle, and dumfries, and some villages.

What is going on? Does just nobody like the north or something???

And then Scotland.. that consists of basically Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Aberdeen.
Granted, that is mostly large hills / mountains.

ALSO, I only just noticed how large Ireland is.
Almost the size of the inhabited part of England.

Shows how small my perspective is

mmmm

Should be plenty of pubs I'm sure.
Although, petrol stations could be a bit far between

Thats what i was thinking i could get there from london and still ride a hundred miles or more before needing to find a petrol station.

Although i do prefer riding my bike with a full tank feels so much nicer and better weighted.

Ha yeah same here I have only ever seen my reserve come on once. Although it confused me as reserve came on and clocked about 2 miles and when I filled up I could only fit 10.5 litres of fuel in which as the reserve is meant to come in at 1.6 litres remaining that only 12.1 litres... What about the other 2 litres?
