An idea I've idly toyed with, but never taken any practical steps to achieve:
Ride from Boston to New York and back in a day
....via Holland Fen and Chapel Hill, stopping off to gawk at any visible Lancaster, Spitfire, Hurricane or Dakota at the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight at Coningsby, passing Dave Yates' place at Hawthorn Hill, then over Scrub Hill on the way to New York, and whizzing up Bunker's Hill on the way back to Boston. Gotta love all those hills - they seem to qualify for the name by being a couple of feet or so higher than the surrounding farmland. Probably no more than about 40km in total, so might need to find some way of extending it towards the wolds for a bit more exercise.
