I should be OK provided I don't hit roadworks, perhaps I'll put a car sat nav in my letter to Santa this year?

Hope that wasn't a hint!I should be OK provided I don't hit roadworks, perhaps I'll put a car sat nav in my letter to Santa this year?
For the record, this ride will not [at least on my part] involve SatNav or maps, it is all in my head so no gp whatsit files or whatever they are called. Every forum ride I have been on that has involved following a SatNav has got us lost, so for my emergency backup I will be using Cardmin, blows Garmin out of the water.

I admit that I have taken a wrong turn once or twice when using my Garmin but I always spot it within about 30 seconds.*** I think I have done over 20,000 km using my Garmin now and the only times I got lost were when I switched it off and improvised a different route.
*** Yes, other riders spotted my one navigational mistake on the recent Glasson Dock ride before I did, but I would have spotted it a few seconds later if they hadn't!

My Pearson has had a clean and a fettle, my car has had its fluids checked, tyre pressures done and fuel put in, I've just got to load the car and I'm ready to roll.

I'm in sunny Melton! The bike is all clean and good to go, I'm just hoping I haven't left something at home that I need! See you all bright and early on Sunday

I have heard it called a lot of things but never that! Not to worry if you have forgotten anything, our garage is more like a bike shop.I'm in sunny Melton! The bike is all clean and good to go, I'm just hoping I haven't left something at home that I need! See you all bright and early on Sunday

I think it's going to be my old thin longs, saves energy over a long day, not that this is going to be a long day eh chaps 
. I'm betting this is going to be a tad slower after the cafe stop.

I used to like the way the club rides used to start speeding up about 5 miles from the cafe stop
, I'm expecting a long day, tomorrows dinner is already in the oven, as I'm out all day the eldest is taking his mum out for the day, so the chicken is in the oven now and will be served up cold tomorrow night.
