Northants Laning - 21st May 2011
Re: Northants Laning - 21st May 2011
Had a good day yesterday doing the recce for the Northants Laning - many thanks to Ben for coming along
The route includes some really excellent lanes, with good views across Northamptonshire. Will post up a couple of pics when I get a chance.
Will be sending out the starting point, and details of the route via PM next weekend.
Ideally would be looking to do this in 2 groups, based on there currently being 6 sign ups. Would anybody be willing to lead one of the groups?

I don't mind leading - bearing in mind I don't have any form of routing software, so would need maps - but I guess the ideal person would be Ben as he did the recce

Thanks for volunteering to lead a group
A Tom Tom will work to get from lane to lane, if you don't have one, you can borrow mine. I can pre programme it with the start co ords of each route. (You can allways call me if you get lost ) I will be printing copies of the route to hand out on the day as well.
Been out today and found a good pub finish the route with

I have the cars satnav, so can get there - just the route may be an issue - unless you have waypoints. Can be sorted I'm sure

Mark,
It should work quite well if I pre programme the Tom Tom with the start Co-ords of each byway/track. Generally once on the byway, there is only one route, I will however be providing print outs of the lanes themselves with any specific guidance that may be required. Once you have reached the end of the track, the Tom Tom can get you to the next one As long as you find the Pub at the end, all will be well.

Sounds a plan.
Though, I'm not sure if Harvoy will be coming - I've not heard from him for a while - and he hasn't been on the forum since Feb

Here are some pics from the recce...
Should be a great day on the 21st - there is still space for a couple more sign ups!
